- The mesmerizing extravagance of mechanized parking.

The article discusses an automated, 74-space mechanical carport in Washington DC. It has the ability to detect oversized cars (more and 6' 6" tall) and overweight vehicles (more 6han 5,500 pounds). "The underground vault that stores the car is arranged like a closet outfitted with a pair of giant shoe racks. The cars are stacked in columns four-high along two walls."
