New Hampshire Parking Garage staircase to close for repairs
Beginning Monday, March 4, City contractors will perform maintenance and repairs on the southwest stairwell of the New Hampshire Parking Garage. This work will result in intermittent closures of the stairwell over the next four months. The garage will remain open, but visitors may need to use alternate stairwells during this time.
This work will include the installation of a new enclosure that will reduce maintenance and labor costs by preventing harmful winter weather from degrading the stairway.
The City anticipates this work to be completed by early July, pending weather or other delays.

The City anticipates this closure to end by the end of March, pending weather or other delays.
