The new, four-level parking garage at Sioux Falls Regional Airport features 960 covered parking spaces. The first level includes only short-term parking options, and levels two through four are designated for long-term airport parking. The ramp includes 22 charging spaces across multiple levels for electric vehicles and an elevator for easy access.
The facility was designed to meet increased parking demand and enhance the travel experience at the airport, which now has more than 4,350 total parking spots (garage and surface lots).
A skywalk connects the second level of the parking ramp to the terminal building, allowing for temperature-controlled passenger movement between the garage and terminal.
The interior design incorporated colors, symbols, and murals on each level of the garage to enhance wayfinding.
-
Level 1 is themed in purple and features the Pasque flower, the South Dakota state flower.
-
Level 2 uses a green palette with Western Wheat Grass, the state grass.
-
Level 3 is yellow and highlights the Bison, a symbol of strength and heritage.
-
Level 4 features orange and showcases the Pheasant, the state bird.
The structure includes two large murals of Sioux Falls landmarks – Falls Park and the Arc of Dreams – photographed by Paul Schiller.
