ABM Partners with Navy Pier to Provide Parking Management Services at Chicago’s Iconic Lakefront Destination
July 17 2018 - 8:00AM
ABM (NYSE:ABM), a leading provider of facility solutions, has
been contracted to provide parking services to Navy Pier, one of
the top-attended destinations in the Midwest. Under the agreement,
ABM will provide parking management services for Navy Pier’s onsite
parking facilities, comprising more than 1,500 parking spaces in
total, as well as support in implementation of planned updates to
parking revenue control equipment and signage within the
facilities.
Located on Lake Michigan, Navy Pier is one of the leading
nonprofit cultural destinations in the Midwest, stretching more
than six city blocks and welcoming more than 9 million guests
annually. Now in its second century, the Pier is in the midst of a
bold, multi-year redevelopment project that has resulted in the
opening of the iconic Centennial Wheel, the 13-acre Polk Bros Park,
and most recently, the new Fifth Third Bank Family Pavilion,
featuring dozens of options in dining, retail, entertainment and
attractions. The Pier has yet to unveil its Peoples Energy Welcome
Pavilion this August, a 220-room hotel in 2020, among other
exciting new renovations.
“Navy Pier is an integral part of the fabric of Chicago,” said
Arnold Klauber, SVP of Parking, ABM. “We are excited to partner
with this popular Midwest destination to help make the guest
experience more seamless, and leverage our industry expertise to
meet the unique demands of their operations.”
“As the People’s Pier, Navy Pier remains committed to finding
ways to continue enhancing its guest experience and delivering
quality service across the board, from arrival to departure,” said
Brian Murphy, Chief Operating Officer, Navy Pier. “We look forward
to working with ABM, a parking solutions provider with a proven
track record in successfully managing large-scale facilities, and
utilizing their resources and expertise to improve the parking and
overall guest experience at the Pier.”
The partnership with Navy Pier expands ABM’s footprint in the
Chicago Metro area, as well as its national parking services
portfolio.
