The Royal Oak Downtown Development Authority is pushing for the redevelopment of the Center Street parking garage and an adjacent surface lot in downtown Royal Oak.
The parking garage and surface lot is located at the corner of South Center and West Second streets. The city owns the structure, which is about 30 years old, and adjacent surface lot. The DDA is proposing the city conduct a study on the parking garage to see how much useful life it has left in it before considering putting out a request for proposals to develop it.
The DDA would like to see a new mixed-use development for in the space with things like a new parking garage, retail space and condos. The Royal Oak City Commission is considering the idea.
