The parking garage being constructed in downtown Oxford is starting to look like…a parking garage.

Last week, construction work on the site was evident as large pre-cast pieces of the structure were delivered. Over the next six weeks, the exterior of the parking garage will really start to take shape. A new Oxford Borough administration building is also part of the project.

There will be some intermittent closures of 2nd Street from Lancaster Avenue to Octoraro Alley in the coming weeks as trucks deliver the large pre-cast pieces to the site. 

With the new phase of the construction work starting, a completion to the project starts to come in sight. The construction work on the exterior of the structure is scheduled to be completed this year, and the entire project, including the interior work, is expected to be finished in the first part of 2020.

The parking garage will address the need for more parking in the business district, and will also help Oxford attract new businesses to its commercial district.
