City of Greensboro officials announced plans to begin demolition of the aging Davie Street parking deck, with road closures scheduled to start in March and impact North Davie Street between East Fri. The project announcement on February 26, 2026 identified the downtown parking structure as the immediate focus and tied the closures directly to the demolition work.

The city said the demolition work is expected to take several weeks to months, with crews mobilizing in early March to begin removing the structure. North Davie Street will be closed in the block noted in the announcement, and officials signaled the closure window will cover the bulk of the demolition phase while heavy equipment and materials are staged.

Officials framed the closure timing around the demolition sequence, noting March as the start month for traffic restrictions and access changes. The announcement left the overall end date open, reflecting the city’s assessment that the work could extend into a multi-week or multi-month timeline depending on demolition pace and site conditions.

The Davie Street parking deck was described in the city notice as aging, and the decision to demolish the structure followed inspection and planning actions that preceded the February 26 announcement. City of Greensboro personnel will oversee site operations during demolition, with the March road closures enabling crews to work on the deck and manage debris and safety per municipal protocols.

Residents and drivers who use North Davie Street between East Fri should expect the closure to affect access in the downtown block cited by the city. The February 26 announcement makes clear demolition will begin in March and continue on a schedule tied to how quickly crews can safely dismantle the aging parking deck over the coming weeks to months.
