From the classic circular Marina City tower in Chicago to the latest robotic technology employed at the Volkswagen Factory in Germany, from Frank Gehry to Rem Koolhaas to Zaha Hadid, the form and function of the parking garage has been hugely influential not only on contemporary architects but also on popular culture. This book is at once a survey of the finest examples of parking garages and a presentation of exciting and innovative design.
