The City & Suburban Electric Carriage Company (City & Suburban) opened the first multi-storey car park in the UK in May 1901. The 19,000 square foot facility had seven floors and space for 100 vehicles and an electric elevator to move the vehicles between floors.
In 1902 City & Suburban opened its second garage in a converted building in Westminster known as Niagara that could house 230 vehicles. At both facilities vehicles were housed, serviced, cleaned, and delivered to owners on request.
When people think about car accidents it is likely that they may think about road traffic collisions on motorways or busy roads. However, rather surprisingly, one in five vehicle collisions occur within car park environments.
