IF GREENE Street is I
closed, about 20 spaces will
be lost.
According to the Columbia
President's Panel, a parking
facility will be built adjacent
to the Byrnes International
Center as soon as funds are
available.
Baker said he does not |
expect the parking facility to
be built for several years
because there may be
problems buying the lot from
its owner.
!
I The panel said the
facility's capacity will
depend on the money
available for construction
i and the demand for parking
spaces.
There are 20 parking areas
on campus available to
resident students, and three
areas designated tor commuting
students. There are
38 areas on campus for
5 faculty and staff parking.
