The Kilroy Oyster Point Phase Two Parking Structure in South San Francisco is a premier example of Clark Pacific’s PARC and design-build approach, providing 1,961 parking spaces and 865,000 square feet of laboratory space for the region’s growing biotechnology sector. Thoughtfully integrated into the hillside, the structure minimizes perceived height by placing its main entrance on Level Three, while multiple access points, reversible lanes, and dynamic LED signage ensure smooth vehicle flow. Pedestrian and vehicle circulation are enhanced through central ramps, stair towers, and five elevators.
The design features exposed prefabricated concrete and a perforated metal screen that complements the campus aesthetic. The gravity system combines precast double tees and girders connected with a 3.5-inch topping slab, while a hybrid moment frame provides exceptional seismic resilience. Standardization of moment frame components streamlined production and simplified erection.
Clark Pacific’s use of prefabrication highlights the efficiency of PARC, reducing on-site labor and construction time while overcoming site challenges and tight schedules. The result is a high-quality, durable, and resilient structure completed in just 22 weeks—delivering a reliable parking solution that supports the campus and community.
