I am building a garage in Redmond, WA. Open to the public, 24/7 access, 3k sf. clubhouse. Opening 2016. Been underground about the idea until about a week ago -- needed to close on the land.

That's crazy you're going to only have three cars in it

Looks cool though. Wish we had something like that in my neck of the woods. |

Do you know how much he's charging for spaces? I've been considering doing the same here in Charlotte. I don't know enough about the details or logistics of it to make it happen right now, but thats something a couple of us here have been talking about... |

There is an enthusiast here in central Ohio that has executed this same idea, though on a smaller scale, with great success. I think his building only has 20-25 total spots available but each slot is huge, has an assigned outlet for battery tenders, etc. They also have an on-site lift that can be used at any time, small lounge with kitchen, TV, entertainment, wash bay at the facility, etc.
I have designed the building and concept to germinate a "community" of like minded enthusiasts -- with emphasis on the social and concierge services for our members. Storage is just one of the amenities (150 spots, race trailer storage, detail bays, etc.). One thing that is very important is being central to the population, Drivers Club is minutes away from our largest and most populated areas (Seattle/Bellevue/Kirkland/Issaquah/Redmond). Obviously the land was more expensive, but I believe location is imperative to ensure the ultimate success of the project and make it insular to economic forces. I normally build multi-family or office product, so I have experience in developing and managing lease properties -- this is more of a passion project. I also ran out of room in my garage and will be a customer at the facility. :-) Sorry to fill up the page, just excited to offer something unique to the Porsche community and make it easier to buy or enjoy our cars. Expect to see some ads for DC in various club magazines in the Spring. :typing: |
for those that have utilized such facilities.......what is expected monthly income per client/car

Damn you guys got me jealous with my dirty old standard garage filled with junk.

Do you know how much he's charging for spaces? While he does try to generate profit on this place, he built it for a place to store all of his toys and knew he had enough friends with storage issues for their toys that they'd be more than willing to participate. He would have built it just for his own toys even if nobody else wanted to pay to have their cars there. The two times I have asked about available spots I was pretty far down a wait list to get in there. |

Sorry I got interrupted while posting. Anonymous, your elevation drawing appears to be one level and your photo looks to be below grade. Is entrance at lower grade or do you have an elevator, or??? |
