Downtown Wilmington parking deck to close for repairs starting Monday

NEW HANOVER COUNTY, NC (WWAY) —  The New Hanover County-owned parking deck at 212 North 2nd Street will be closed starting on Monday for structural repairs.

The county said to speed along the process, the entire deck will be inaccessible for the duration of the work, which is expected to take 4-6 weeks to complete.

A tentative reopening of the parking deck is anticipated for mid-September.

Information about alternative parking arrangements for monthly pass holders, individuals called for jury duty, and hotel users in downtown Wilmington has been shared with those impacted.

This closure aligns with the final day of operation for the Main Public Library in downtown Wilmington, which will close after regular business hours on Sunday, August 3, in preparation for staff to work on transitioning to the new Grace District facility, which will open in October.

Publicly accessible parking decks managed by the City of Wilmington are available at 114 North 2nd Street and 115 Market Street, as well as on-street parking and other privately operated surface lots throughout downtown.

Additional information about parking in downtown Wilmington is available at the city’s website.
