Facility Overview
The parking facilities associated with the Dow corporate campus in Midland, Michigan, serve as a primary infrastructure hub for the company\'s regional operations. Located within the heart of the corporate headquarters district, these facilities primarily consist of secure, open-air surface lots and designated multi-level employee parking structures. The site is designed to accommodate standard passenger vehicles, full-size SUVs, and pickup trucks with ease, offering generous bay widths. Please note that while surface lots provide unlimited vertical clearance, any multi-level structure within the Dow complex may have standard height restrictions typical of corporate parking decks, usually around 6\'8\" to 7\'0\".
