“As founder of Walker Parking Consultants, Inc. and Carl Walker, Inc., both national parking consulting firms, I have worked with and developed many professional executives.  Paul Mack is one of my favorites.  He took over a floundering regional office in Denver, Colorado and turned it into one of Carl Walker, Inc.’s more successful offices.  Under Paul’s leadership, the office served 11 states.  Paul has a professional demeanor and serves clients fairly and with respect.  His success is largely due to hard work, meeting commitments, and his ability to form and keep meaningful relationships that go far beyond his consulting abilities.”

“Developing a full city block in the high profile Common Platte Valley District in lower downtown Denver for a cadre of patrons was a challenging task.  Many private and governmental agencies, as well as the Regional Transportation District (RTD) had voices that were all listened to. The combining of ideas resulted in an outstanding mixed-use campus.  Vehicle parking was of paramount importance so we retained Parking Consultants LLC, a Denver firm, to help us provide user friendly parking spaces that would fill the needs of a diverse group of users.  Their expertise was particularly beneficial during the concept and schematic design phases.  Construction documents from Parking Consultants were clear, concise, and complete.  We have used this firm on many other projects and will use them again when appropriate”.

“CSHQA won a design competition and was chosen by Boise State University to design a parking structure that would be the model for four future garages. We realized we needed a state-of-the-art parking consultant, and we selected Carl Walker, Inc. because of the effort Paul Mack put into the project by coming to Boise for concept designs, Owner meetings, and cost estimating.  His planning acumen and broad parking consulting knowledge helped the project come in well under budget.”

“Montana State University, Billings, wanted a state-of-the-art parking structure to be the gateway to the campus.  To ensure that the structure was properly designed, we contracted with Paul Mack to lead the design effort for structural and functional design of the garage.  His overall performance was very professional and his work exceeded our expectations and was totally acceptable to our client.  Together we worked out a way to provide a deck over a canal which added many spaces and tied the facility to an existing surface lot.  We appreciated his creativity and have used him as a parking consultant on other projects.”

“Having consultants on a project team that know what they are talking about and interview well, are vital to the team winning a project. Paul Mack was our parking consultant for the 15^th and Pearl mixed-use garage in Boulder Colorado. He was very effective in addressing neighborhood concerns during a 3-day charette in Boulder.”

“Swinerton Builders built three parking structures with Paul Mack leading the structural engineering and parking consulting effort.  Two were for Lucent Technologies (920 and 750 spaces) and the third was for the Veterans Affairs Medical Facility (700 spaces).  The VA garage was a design/build project.  Through Paul’s efforts, the projects were completed early and within budget.  We have a good relationship with Paul and will continue to use him as a parking consultant whenever appropriate.”

“DPR Construction Company was in the process of negotiating a parking structure for St. Josephs Hospital.  We had already retained Paul Mack as our design/build team member to do the structural engineering and parking consulting.  At the same time, he was discussing a parking structure for Children’s Hospital across the alley from our site.  He convinced both hospitals to form a joint venture and build one large garage to serve both facilities.  Paul helped vacate the alley to gain land and the result was a better, more efficient facility that served both hospitals’ employees.”

“When Wal-Mart contracted with Colorado Structures, Inc. to construct a parking structure for a new Superstore in southeast Denver, it made sense for the design team to subcontract the structural engineering and functional design to a firm specializing in that discipline.  During the concept phase, Paul Mack met with the team and CSI frequently and helped set the footprint and parking modules. He worked particularly well with our precast concrete supplier and was instrumental in delivering a quality garage.”

“Paul Mack and CTA Architects Engineers have a great relationship.  On occasion, we have hired him to do work for us and vice versa.  We know him to be a good engineer and parking consultant, and he is a committed team member.  His input on the design of our city garage in Great Falls, Montana was instrumental is making that award winning project a good addition to our portfolio.”

“Because our firm provides only concept architectural design for a wide variety of buildings, it is important that we receive quality input from consultants.  Paul Mack has consistently guided us through the unique requirements of parking structure design and has helped us with zoning and planning issues.  His input on the 1890 Wynkoop project was provided quickly and professionally, and his owning a loft in a nearby building was helpful to the design team when dealing with many neighborhood organizations.”

“We could not have built the Banner Office Building garage without the help of our parking consultant Paul Mack.  He was able to communicate with a difficult owner and come up with value engineering suggestions in a timely manner.  His structural design was simple, but effective, and his parking module design was very efficient.  Paul specified inexpensive, reliable access control equipment as well as good graphics.”

“The parking structure for the Colorado Springs Police Operations Center was not just another garage. YOW Architects were challenged to provide a facility that would accommodate a variety of unique vehicles including hazmat vans, explosives trucks, and impounded cars on hauling trailers. Our parking consultant, Paul Mack, worked closely with us during all phases of the project to make sure that traffic flow, parking modules, and internal ramping would meet the client’s needs.”

“Constructing a parking garage in Great Falls was a significant event.  It took years of planning and budgeting before everything was in place to design and build the garage.  Because Paul Mack had worked with our Billings office before, he was a known parking consultant with a good reputation, so he was retained to work out the functional design details for the City parking structure.  As before, we found his work to be concise, complete, and professionally done through each phase of the project.”

“Designing and constructing a 1,500 car parking garage on a constrained site at Memorial Hospital took a lot of cooperation from design team members, contractors, and the hospital staff.  Precast concrete was used for the superstructure because of its speed of erecting, its minimal requirements for product delivery on site, quality, and excellent opportunities for architectural expression.  During early phases of the design, Paul Mack consulted with the architect and structural engineer on durability issues including slopes for drainage, concrete water/cement ratios, corrosion protection and waterproofing.  His 25-years experience in precast concrete design and parking consulting were very helpful in the team delivering an award winning project.”

“While our 1986 parking structure was serving us well, it needed a few repairs that were beyond annual maintenance.  We selected Parking Consultants LLC to do an in-depth evaluation of the garage, document structural and operational problems, and provide us cost estimates for repairs along with a priority list.  We found their work to be very professional, concise and complete.  Working closely with a restoration contractor, they were able to minimize disruptions to parkers while the work was done.”

“When our project development team began addressing how a wide variety of parking patrons could best be served, we discovered a confusing maze of access and control equipment.  Inquiries to vendors let us know this is an industry that seems to change hourly, so we felt a consultant would be very helpful.  We found Melissa Baughman at Parking Consultants LLC to be the Swiss Army Knife of PARCS. Her tenacity and knowledge resulted in a very good parking control system for Solaris.”

“Knowing what a signature parking structure this would be, we took our time and listened carefully to State representatives, the Santa Fe Historic Board, and our consultants.  No ideas were discounted during charettes and brainstorming sessions so our design team was able to optimize all facets of the garage.  Our parking consultant, Paul Mack, worked with the local precast concrete manufacturer some 25-years ago and that relationship bore fruit throughout all design phases when member sizes and connection details were selected.  Paul helped set drainage slopes, contributed to durability criteria, and carefully completed functional designs for the facility.  We found Parking Consultants to be very responsive and easy to work with.  They did what they said they would do.”

“While preparing our qualifications to interview for this project, our thoughts were directed more toward the office building than the parking structure.  When we started looking at the garage, it became clear that garages are complex; having sloped ramps, pedestrian/vehicle maneuverability issues, and geometric constraints.  We selected Parking Consultants LLC to join our team because of Paul Mack’s good reputation in Montana and his structural engineering experience.  His input evaluating structural systems (post-tensioned vs precast), guiding us on durability issues, and setting drainage slopes were helpful.  Their efficient functional designs and parking equipment selections resulted in a garage that is friendly and accepted well by all patrons.”
