Shoppers will also be delighted to discover the first floor stores, including Citi Wok, a Chinese restaurant; a barber shop, and an outlet of Wally's Auto Parts. The entrance/exit for the garage are smartly situated on both corners of the ground level.
The structure has plenty of intriguing lines, with overhead business signage on the first floor and solid appearing balconies on the parking levels. There are round structural supports visible are all four floors. They have red and yellow safety striping to prevent any O gauge motorists from having an accident.
The rear of the building has overhang on three sides of the run-through. These angles make the garage much more interesting than a conventional box-shaped parking structure. Of note, the run through insert isn't the typical "U" shaped insert, but has two simple doors to be inserted or removed as desired.
Detailing accents include pedestrians and shoppers positioned on the weathered sidewalk, as well as Jack the German Shepherd. This structure also includes two large billboards that feature interchange decals that allow you to use the decals from the Plug & Play Lighted Billboard SKU# 279-3693.
