Arrow Amazing car Storage

This is pretty amazing! Can you imagine how all this operates? How do they lock each car in its cubicle for safety? WHO CARES. NO ONE IN THEIR RIGHT MIND COULD GET IN THERE.
Talk about German efficiency! The photos below were taken at a new parking garage in Munich. The actual space that the facility occupies is approximately only 20% of a comparable facility with the traditional design that is used primarily in the US. Not only is the German structure less expensive to build, but vehicles are also "retrieved" in less time and without the potential of being damaged by an attendant.

they have stuff that's cooler than that in japan that i've seen... maybe china too.... instead of being a big round room like that it's a huge complex that's underground with a bunch of machines working to move cars... this seems like there's only one thing that can retrieve a car at a time....

either way ti's still cool... and it'd be much harder to get stuff stolen out of your car that's for sure...

that's just for looks from the outside as you drive by... that's not for efficiency... they make these kinds of parking garages because you can park more cars in the same amount of space...
