1. What an amazing concept

Anybody remember when it was the US that lead the world in innovative ideas like this? Just how long do you think it will be before we even try to "copy" something like this in any of our cities? I can tell you that no where in the near future where I live in PA.

2. K&R. Incredibly cool!

We need these, could totally transform our cities! :wow: :woohoo:

3. How is it more usefull than parking garages we have now

I live in a small city and we have underground parking garages. I agree that you can fit a more cars in a given space, and much much more convenient, but I imagine it would be very very expensive to build.

4. That was my first thought, too, the cost.

I wonder how much it costs to park there. But it seems to fit a lot of cars in a much smaller space and eliminates the frustration of driving around, and the danger of being hit or hitting somebody. Also, it looks pretty cool... :)

5. I'm wondering about the fire hazard.

It's very very very rare, but cars have been known to catch fire by themselves, if there's an electrical problem, malfunctioning battery, fuel leak etc.

Didnt look like a great place fight a fire.

Still, it's an interesting concept.
