Funny how it stands out in that picture isn't it. Like me he leaves his DD there when he picks up the 458 for the weekend. Parking spaces are at a premium in CH which requires the rental of a separate space and most of the cars are owned by people who do not live full time in the country.
Look carefully and you can see 3 LaF's.

Isn't that what the cars are for?

Ha! I have two four post lifts being installed right now to complement my current 2 post lift. So if two lifts are crazy, what are three?

Heaven......I love everything you did to it. Great job!!!!!

Great set up Nick! Was this space originally the garage or basement?
Love the wheel storage and 'feel' of the space.

Thanks guys. Phil, it was a garage addition. It was a bit of a challenge as I was limited by a setback. Basically I added a third garage door, with the addition extending along and behind the existing garage.

Here's an animation of the design from the exterior:

Bomb shelter?? Bunker, safe room?

Having a hard time seeing what's going on here. What's the whole burm for around the perimeter? Or is the picture all a lower level?

It would appear that you are building a shopping mall.
