It's the secret entrance to a Tardis. 

Gawd.  Have you lived all your life under a rock?

It looks like a large elevator bay, with doors at each end.    [there are doors at the far wall also]

An elevator, for a car/vehicle ?

Yep, that's what it is alright.

For a multi-level parking garage.

Yup, a car lift. There was two but one didn't seem to be working. As I was exiting the car waiting to go in was a MB roadster, prob worth $1m driven by Yoko Ono's doppleganger. She sneered at me because she had to back up to let my POS soccermum SUV pass.

gordon,

Look, if constant social intercourse on an open public forum has taught you anything about people.....
you should have learned by now, that 'entitled' individuals expect to be able to do just as they wish,
and to do it, exactly when they wish.

Entitled.

Wink


Ah well.

I guess that is for those who are able to enjoy exclusive, 'off-street-parking' ?   heheh

Can't half tell it's for cars with all the oil marks on the floor ... but where's the coffee machine and the sandwich dispenser if the lift gets stuck between floors? No music either

Seems like a good idea. A lot of car parking space in the city is lost to ramps.

'Good idea'  ?


Do these 'off-street-parking' elevators have 'a crank handle', in case the power goes out ?

Maybe they ALL have a standby emergency generator ?     Huh

Fairly new and posh building with a 24/7 concierge. It also has UPS for lifts and emergency lighting.
