STARKVILLE, Miss.—Mississippi State University officials broke ground Wednesday [Aug. 7] on a new 500-space parking garage, which will be located next to Howell Hall and across from Humphrey Coliseum. The $16 million garage was designed by Tupelo-based McCarty Architects and is being built by Amason and Associates. It is expected to be completed next summer.
