Tilted Forum Project Discussion Community - View Single Post - Thinking Outside the Box: Weathering a Hurricane in a Parking Garage

I have to agree with everything Analog said. A parking garage would be an ideal place to wait out a hurricane.

Parking garages and libraries are the sturdiest structures made today. They have to be considering the immense weight they hold up.

Here's another interesting fact about parking garages (although my data is about 8 yrs. old)... I've been told it costs roughly $100k PER PARKING SPACE to build one!
