I rent an apartment at the Metropolitan Tower in Seattle Washington, where I pay an additional $190/month for parking in the building. The parking spaces provided in the garage (managed by IPM and open to the public) are COMPLETELY inadequate for all but perhaps the tiniest cars. I own a small sedan, and when I park in the garage, I can barely open my car door to get in or out of my car if another car is parked next to me. It's impossible to get into a parking spot without body damage if a large car or SUV is parked adjacent. Moreover, the large support columns have caused significant body and fender damage--not only to my car but that of a friend's car! If I had known that the parking was so completely inadequate at the Metropolitan Tower when I was looking for an apartment, I would not have rented here. The monthly price is just not worth the body damage to my car.
