I look at it this way ...
The height of a building is limited by planning permission.
If the car park land is not economical to build another block, then building a smaller car park is good. The main block would have more units if it starts from ground zero and developer makes more money selling dwelling than car park.

QUOTE(a16791 @ Oct 12 2020, 11:17 AM) There's a ramp but than there's a limitation on the number of floors .I have seen maybe up to 4/5 floors . One still need to turn turn. I find it easier to go through each floor rather than doing a pole dance. Not sure about others.

QUOTE(DavidKool @ Oct 12 2020, 11:52 AM) Honestly, I couldnt find any pro for this development of separate the stand alone building for car parks. Unless security is tightly given and assume all car parks are with ventilation and fresh air, but this pro Some projects forced to built this stand alone car park building are due to; 1. Land issue such as land slope or ex-mining land like Desa Park City which unable to build basement car parks; 2. Construction cost evolving like DPC scenario above. Some projects may find it cheaper just to built 2-3 storey car park building (with the condo no basement parking) than initial plan of basement car park which required more floors hence higher construction costs due to stronger engineering works required, as well as to replace it with the facilities floor needed and cut cost from here. In addition, more maintenance for basement parking .... 24 hours lighting and ventilation system. This post has been edited by mini orchard: Oct 12 2020, 12:30 PM
