I am amazed that the building is just a parking garage. I love to see someone push the limits of design like that.

Those people who drove their cars on Lake Shore Drive during "Snopocalypse" were complete idiots and DESERVED to get trapped there. All of Chicago had been warned for days and days that a massive snowstorm was coming and that people should stay off the roads that night. They warned we might get snow up to our waists for crying out loud!

When the storm hit, it was obvious it was a dangerous, serious storm--you couldn't see a foot in front of you. What kind of moron would choose to drive in those conditions?
