Pretty cool video of the 239 car automated parking system at Jameson House on West 888 Hastings.

Looks cool, but I wonder how long it takes to get your car during the morning rush.

I wonder if they have a backup power source if electricity is down

Reminds me of Tokyo Drift... =|
Cool none the less but could foresee tons of problems.

Pretty baus if you tell me. But for sure they would need more "outlets" in cause multiple people need to leave at the same time.

HK airport uses this method for their air cargo freights. This is old news...but new to vancouver.

something are best left old fashioned. What the fuck is wrong with a parking garage.

just imagine if one of those hydralic jacks holding up the top car breaks and crumbles down onto the other cars below it.

Stuff like this is old tech in places like Tokyo. Maybe it's starting to make sense in Vancouver due to the value of land in places like DT (smaller footprint than a normal parking lot)

Why they don't have this at Aberdeen and Parker Place is beyond me. Richmond would be less of a casualty centre if they had this.

It's cool for sure. Don't think I'd wanna pay extra for this convenience (or extreme inconvenience in case of power down or some mechanical failure).
