Visiting a friend’s apartment I was struck by the sheer quantity of high value cars parked under the houses.
Everywhere I looked a nice set of wheels.
Some quite rare cars too.
Here are a few shots by way of explanation.
So, does anyone have evidence of a more interesting multi storey car park or garage ?

The best ones are where the whole floor is slightly sloped so you don’t have a steep ramp or a tight spiral at the end to reach the next level. Second of course to fancy Japanese style robotic lift ones. HTH yes

To be fair. They have a stock list that’s slightly raunchy

That’s Hong Kong
There’s a place in central I think and there’s a car park full of super car dealerships

I've always quite liked the circular multi-storey in Leicester with the Abbey Motor Hotel/Sky Plaza Hotel hotel on top.

Sadly it's seen better days now

If you want a brutalist stty car park in Leicester, also try Lee Circle a couple of streets away. It was opened by Sid James, you know!

Its a little unclear whether you mean the best in terms of aesthetics, ease of use or value for money.

I think from a visual perspective I have a number of favourites - see below:









However I have to say that my favourite is:



In terms of ease of use it is hard to beat some of the robo parking garages like this one:



Obviously it helps if you get out of your car prior to its delivery to its parking spot.

In terms of value for money it will obviously depend on where you are looking to park, though I find that the St. Marks Car Park in Wrexham makes a convincing argument:





I mean who wouldn't want to step over that interestingly spreading pool of liquid in order to get their ticket validated? Al fresco toilet facilities and a spitoon. Who could realistically ask for more?

That was the one I thought of.

Some Film programme on Radio 4 about a month ago about the how the lockdown was impacting on local cinemas used part of the bars of the theme tune, the high pitched 'de dah' bit.
