Cheshire, CT – February 6, 2025 – We’re pleased to announce University Station, a premier apartment complex located in the heart of The City of Hollywood, FL, and managed by Housing Trust Group (HTG), has chosen TKH Security (formerly Park Assist) to implement an advanced parking management system, enhancing the convenience and security of its residents and visitors.

University Station is a thriving community center and home to 216 apartments, more than 2,000 square feet of commercial and retail space, and 12,210 square feet of educational space. Recognizing the need for a state-of-the-art parking solution, HTG Management selected the Park Assist Solution, an industry-leading automated parking guidance system (APGS), to optimize space utilization, improve traffic flow, and elevate the overall parking experience at University Station.

The apartment complex and management sought a smart parking solution that could seamlessly integrate with their modern residential complex while providing an intuitive, user-friendly experience. With increasing demand for efficient and secure parking, the property management team recognized the Park Assist solution’s proven track record in delivering innovative, data-driven solutions. The decision was solidified by APGS’s ability to offer a scalable and future-ready system tailored to meet the complex’s needs today and in years to come.

“The University Station team is dedicated to providing residents with the best possible living experience, and that extends to parking,” said Thomas Alexander, Regional Account Executive. “By implementing our cutting-edge parking management system, we’re enhancing safety, security, and convenience, making parking a seamless part of daily life.”

The University Station parking facility consists of one garage spanning five floors. Designed to serve the diverse needs of residents and their guests, and visitors to the public spaces, the garage required a parking solution that balances efficiency, security, and ease of use. The Park Assist Solution brings together answers to each of those concerns in a single, highly effective parking guidance system. The heart of this installation, the camera-based M5 smart sensor, is a sophisticated solution designed to provide guided navigation through the facility and 24/7 monitoring.

The M5 sensor utilizes dual CMOS digital cameras to monitor up to six spaces at once with over 99% accuracy, significantly improving traffic flow and minimizing congestion in the parking facility. Its color-coded LED indicators help drivers quickly locate available spots, with green signifying an open space and red indicating that none are available. This advanced technology has been shown to reduce parking search time by up to 63%, significantly improving traffic flow and minimizing congestion within the garage.

The Park Assist Solution at University Station also includes:

• VMS signage informs parkers with to up to the moment parking availability, guiding them to available parking quickly.
• Park Surveillance delivers comprehensive monitoring of each parking space, in and between spaces, by capturing HD streaming video when motion is detected or continuously, allowing security to be on the lookout for suspicious activity more efficiently way than ever before.
• Park Alerts utilizes license plate recognition (LPR) technology to notify management of unauthorized visitors as well as vehicles parked in restricted zones or those exceeding time limits, enhancing security and compliance.
• INX-Core software provides real-time and historical data, equipping property managers with valuable insights into garage performance and usage trends.

“The addition of an APGS aligns with University Station’s commitment to providing a modern, resident-focused living experience. As The City of Hollywood, FL, continues to grow and evolve—celebrating its centennial and embracing innovative urban development—University Station remains at the forefront of smart residential solutions,” said Alexander.
