    Great in concept but if anything goes wrong (mechanical or electrical) you get to stare at your car on the 10th floor for a few hours while the repair man visits.

    @Hello Mister Walrus: Ehh, might be able to work if it wasn't built of glass. Maybe use the metal sidewalls all the way up the structure?

    Looks pretty sweet, but what if the elevator breaks while your car is parked?

    THERE IS NO EXIT STRATEGY!

    @Barry99705: I can crank my elevator manually. I'm not kidding, I've got an elevator in my home and I can crank it up or down as I may. I know it's not optimal, but I'm pretty sure the (parking) elevator is built to last more than perform.

    Damn, I was hoping it was a new dorm for an all female college. How much more convenient can you get when all the nekkid chicks are in one place?

    Has no cement bumpers like regular carparks, what happens when someone forgets their handbrake and their car goes through the lovely glass windows?

    @GitEmSteveDave_RunsFromBestBuy: If you look closely you can see that the trays the cars sit on have bars across the end. Just big enough to stop a car from rolling off.
