The city of Naperville, Illinois will be performing maintenance work at two downtown parking garages starting on April 20. The Central Parking Facility will see concrete patching that will close 10 spots, while the Water Street Parking Deck will undergo resealing and recaulking on the first and second levels, with work limited to one level at a time to minimize disruption.

Why it matters

Parking availability is a constant concern in downtown Naperville, especially for local businesses and residents who rely on convenient access to the city center. This maintenance work, while necessary, could create temporary inconveniences for those seeking parking in the affected garages during the project timeline.

The details

The work will begin on April 20 at the Central Parking Facility, 120 Water St., where crews will be onsite from 7 a.m. to 7 p.m. Monday through Friday for about a week to complete concrete patching. On April 27, the focus will shift to the Water Street Parking Deck, where resealing and recaulking will be done on the first and second levels, with only one level impacted at a time to minimize parking disruptions.

  • The maintenance work will start on April 20 at the Central Parking Facility.
