The controversial parking garage proposed for First Street and Brown Avenue took another step forward April 14 when the Scottsdale City Council approved a $3.8 million contract with Chasse Building Team to buy supplies and begin necessary demolition in order to begin building it.
The council voted 5-2 to approve the contract, with Vice Mayor Adam Kwasman and city council members Maryann McAllen, Kathy Littlefield, Barry Graham and Jan Dubauskas voting for it.
The garage will be three stories above ground and have one existing subterranean level and will bring a total of 412 total parking spaces to Old Town — 186 of them will be new.
