WHY DOES A CAR PARK MAKE A GOOD FIT FOR DISASTER RELIEF?

The garage is a fully open concrete structure. At 1111, ceiling heights vary between standard parking height and double or even triple height, in order to accommodate other programs. In this case, the other programs are situated at levels 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, and 7. This parking garage is a post tension structure, and can withstand high winds. The first floor is retail and floor to ceiling measures 25 feet. In the case of extreme flooding, the implemented program would remain unharmed.
