there are so so many unused surface car parking spaces around the Mountain Dwellings, the absolute LAST thing this area needs is more parking! without density (and no surface car parking) this area will remain a total dead zone. the only people you see walking around it are tourists taking pictures of the facade.
that said, i’m surprised its almost totally unsold, http://www.cphpost.dk/news/local/87-local/45307-worlds-best-flats-not-selling.html

The article says “However, after 10 months on the market, only 17 out of the 80 apartments have sold. Estate agent, Home, has rented 39 of the apartments out for the revenue and a further 24 are lying empty.”

i still think it is pretty cool.

It is not intended as parking for the apartments. It’s general parking for that whole area, Ørestad. The apartments came afterwards.

Great Idea, well executed. But why did the client want 2/3 parking to 1/3 living? Which equates to 6 cars per apartment!!!???
