Parking Facility, Veterans Affairs Medical Center, Salisbury, North Carolina
This new 480-space parking facility will include design and all associated site work, landscaping, road work, and other related work as required, integrating the renovated space/land and new structure completely into the campus. We will review the feasibility and reasonability and select alternatives for an underground garage with tunnel access to connect to one or more of the main buildings in addition to an elevated parking garage with skywalk connecting to a main building and helipad/green area over the top parking floor. The parking garage will be fully sprinkled, equipped with a minimum of two elevators, offer sheltered pickup and drop-off area for vehicles utilizing valet, have an emergency generator and electric availability for the parking of electrified vehicles, have extensive lighting, and a parking assist function to guide/direct patients to the intended parking spot or parking zone.

Curried Chicken Pitas
Cranberries and pear are sweet counterpoints in this tangy curried chicken salad. Toasted sliced almonds add a nutty crunch.
Makes: 4 servings
Active Time: 15 minutes
Total Time: 15 minutes
Ingredients
- 6 tablespoons nonfat plain yogurt
- 1/4 cup low-fat mayonnaise
- 1 tablespoon curry powder
- 2 cups cooked, cubed chicken breast (see Tip)
- 1 ripe but firm pear, diced
- 1 stalk celery, finely diced
- 1/2 cup dried cranberries
- 1/4 cup sliced or slivered almonds, toasted (see Tip)
- 4 4- to 5-inch whole-wheat pita breads, cut in half
- 2 cups sprouts
Preparation: Combine yogurt, mayonnaise and curry powder in a large bowl. Add chicken, pear, celery, cranberries and almonds; toss to combine. Fill each pita half with 1/2 cup chicken salad and 1/4 cup sprouts.
Tips & Notes
- Make Ahead Tip: Cover and refrigerate the salad (Step 1) for up to 2 days.
- Tip: If you don’t have cooked chicken, poach about 12 ounces chicken breast for this recipe. Place boneless, skinless chicken breast in a medium skillet or saucepan. Add lightly salted water (or chicken broth) to cover and bring to a boil. Cover, reduce heat to low and simmer gently until the chicken is cooked through and no longer pink in the middle, 10 to 15 minutes.
- To toast sliced or slivered almonds: Place in a small dry skillet and cook over medium-low heat, stirring constantly, until fragrant and lightly browned, 2 to 4 minutes.
