Ridgewood Officials Outline Parking Deck Options

Net gain of spaces would range from 305 to 206 spaces, depending on the design chosen.

The Hudson Street parking deck could add up to an additional 206 to 305 parking spaces to the Ridgewood Central Business District depending on what option officials choose.

There are three design options officials are considering.

The first is a 136,000-square-foot option that would give a net gain of 305 spaces. The garage would cost $12 million in bonds for a per-space cost of $29,630. The tower would be more than 68 feet tall and the height to the top of the parking facility would be 49 feet.

The third option would be 109,000 square feet and add 206 parking spaces to the downtown. Officials would bond $10.1 million, about $33,000 per space, for the 37-foot-tall facility. The tower would be more than 56 feet tall.
