Once hailed as Britain’s most technologically advanced parking garage, Autosafe Skypark has laid empty for 15 years. Almost empty, that is, since eight vehicles were left behind when the 600-space facility closed its doors in 2003 after just two years in business.
Now the garage, which used lifts and “robot shuttles” to shuffle cars around, is being demolished. And, as the demolition progressed on Wednesday, Feb. 7, some of the abandoned cars went up in flames, taking the secrets of their solitude with them.
