The University of Nevada, Reno, acquired 17 properties to plan what is now the Mathewson Gateway Project. This project will result in the Gateway District, which includes the Gateway Parking Complex and pedestrian bridge. Lumos & Associates teamed with Watry Design Inc. to provide civil design for this new seven-story parking garage and pedestrian bridge.
The Gateway Parking Complex contains an 811-parking space garage with adjacent walkways and roadway improvements. EV charging stations, carpool spaces, ADA parking, and short-term parking were also incorporated into the design.
This project significantly increases student and faculty safety with the pedestrian bridge located across a busy roadway adjacent to the UNR Campus. Both the bridge and Gateway Parking Complex completed construction in January of 2023.
