Parking in Munich!::Gulp::
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 photo above was 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.
What do you think?
Have a great day!

Great .Do they offer a discount for my mini Cooper ? They should . It weights less and therefore the elevator wld. have an east time lifting it up !
As long as I'm not in the car when it goes up that lift fine by me. If they drop it, they buy me another one.
Let's hope they have a staggered Rush Hour!
Peace and hugs to you Babygirl ... you are so beautiful!
I have seen this before....of course I have since I am so muchly into automobiles right? Truly an engineering marvel and just a glimpse of the future and what CAN be done if the minds are allowed to run free....Thinking out of the box in other words.

Wow scary yes but REALLY cool!!
Have a wonderful day Lee Ann!
Foto ~ Yes, that is true. I wonder if motorcycles have a discount!
Jason ~ I agree. I don't think I would care much for that ride either.
Rasta ~ You are right. Wonder if they have a power outage if you cannot get your car back!
Thank you sweet Rasta.
~peace and hugs from babygirl
Brad ~ It is incredible!
Trucker ~ I know, it is cool!
Have a wonderful day too Trucker.
Too bad for car thieves . Their job is Gone In 60 sec ...err ..60 floors full of cars !
I'm sorry but you couldn't pay me enough to park my car that far up, I mean WTF? LOL
So what's next ? The Twin Towers of car park !
I'm surprised the Japanese haven't copied the idea,and combined it with their cubicle hotels.
I wouldn't mind
parking my car
in your garage.
The engineering involved is pretty cool to ponder.
Sorry I've been an absenty blogger.
But, I'm back!
i think its great. i would like to see such ingenuity here in the USA.
Jef ~ I agree. I still wonder about the power failing!
John ~ I think it would deter them a bit! haha
Shannon ~ I know, a little scary, huh?
Coach ~ Could be, if this catches on.
Rob ~ I would love to see those cubicle hotels. I something on television about that once.
Eros ~ Hey! ;)
Thanks for stopping over, I hope you will come by more often.
Andy ~ Welcome back, glad to see you again.
Carl ~ I know, I am suprised that there isn't something like that here. I know something like that would be helpful at UAB!
that's freaking me out, man!
I think that's really cool. I agree with jef, they should go underground with this...
this was in a magazine at my dentist's office early this year. crazy huh!
Terrifying. Actually, I think Blogger might have sorted out the beta commenting bug, so this is a kind of test... if it works, next time I'll say something mildly interesting.
yeah, i totally gulped too.
Yikes. That's freakish.
Very cool.... I like it!
Jlee ~ haha
gkw ~ That would be cool! There are some underground buildings here...wonder what they look like!
Amera ~ Yes, very crazy
Wdky ~ Oh, so glad to see you again. I have trouble commenting on beta blogs...have tried several times in the last few days.
Livelee ~ I know...amazing,right! Good to see you, please come back.
Beckeye ~ I agree, totally!
Ellen ~ I know, it is very cool. Hope you are enjoying this cooler weather!
Jeepers now that is something different! We could do with parking spaces like that overhere at our malls, can never find a bloody parking!!!!!!!
it kind of reminds me of the way bodies were retrieved in the matrix.
You vill park there
and you vill like it!
I'm scared.
Just looking at it gives me the willys. It's really interesting though.
NOT ON YOUR LIFE or mine for that matter! No way Jose! They can keep this structure, I prefer to drive in circles all the way up and park on a level flat cement floor.
Is your birthday tommorrow? Or was it today? In case I am not around tommorrow (if in fact that is your birthday) HAPPY BIRTHDAY!! XOXOXO
nmotb ~ Same with us!
Jiggs ~ Hey, you are right!
Poly ~ Aaaaaaaaaaaahhhhhhh!
l>t ~ I completely understand!
fame ~ haha...can you imagine being up that high and looking down?
Shannon ~ Yes, tomorrow, thank you so much!!!!
~xo
Sans ~ Really, I know!
Parking ramps in any form freak me out. That one definitely looks freaky.
By the way...Happy Birthday

Happy Birthday Gorgeous!
Happy Birthday (in a few minutes).
