Design—South Campus (Parcel B) Parking Structure
PROJECT ADDRESS: Parcel B: Glenarm Power
Plant Site (SE corner of Glenarm Street and S. Raymond Avenue)
Case Manager:
Erin Clark
 PROJECT
DESCRIPTION:
The City of Pasadena is considering entering into a Development
and Lease Agreement with Art Center College of Design (Art
Center) to facilitate Art Center’s use of Parcel B on the
Glenarm Power Plant Site to develop a parking structure. The
intended use is to provide parking for existing South Campus
facilities and for students who will reside in newly constructed
housing directly across Glenarm Street at the Art Center South
Campus site. The student housing component was previously
approved as part of a Master Development Plan within the South
Fair Oaks Specific Plan area.
The Property is currently improved with three, above-ground fuel
oil storage tanks. Two of the three tanks (each 42ft. 3in. tall)
were fully emptied in the mid-1990s. The remaining tank (48ft. tall)
was emptied in 2002 but still contains approximately one foot (500
barrels) of residual material that has yet to be removed. The tanks
were used as part of the Glenarm Power Plant site, which is
currently not in operation. The site is vacant.
The Property would be developed in two phases:
Phase I
Demolition of the three fuel oil storage tanks to allow for use
of the Property for construction staging in connection with Art
Center’s proposed development of student housing on the property
located across Glenarm Street to the north of the Property.
Phase II
Construction of a five-story, above ground parking structure
containing approximately 285 parking spaces (57 spaces per level).
The structure will be approximately 105,000 sq. ft. on a 30,640 sq.
ft. site. Parking would be primarily available to Art Center
students, faculty, staff, and visitors.
