Garage History

Who would have thought, but the Motor Mart Garage has brought both architectural beauty and emerging technology to parking for nine decades.

The double helix ramp design of 1927 still speeds customers to the most convenient empty parking space.

The renovation won several awards for preservation and restoration, a status we work hard to maintain.
