Location
Spire is a 342 unit triangular high rise condo project in the Belltown neighborhood. Spire’s fully automatic parking system serves all 41- stories of these residential condos.
Because of the unique triangular site, 3 portals are employed at each vertex of the building. Parkworks helped design this system to ensure that the maximum amount of parking could fit into this small of a footprint.
In order to make these cars fit, there are 9 underground parking levels, which each portal both deposits and retrieves cars from. Both internal vehicle transporters (IVTs) and external vehicle transporters (EVTs) are used to reach this depth while allowing the system to work as quickly as possible.
