Matt, here's a link to some better pictures: [projects.ajc.com] Let's see how many we can ID. I see a newer Volvo, maybe a Scion xB, the red convertible might be a S2000.
If you had a car in this deck that was a pancake now I imagine that your insurance would take care of the matter pretty easily. What would really suck would be to have a car stuck in the undamaged part of the deck. It is going to be a good while before you can get your car out. If it is like alot of the parking decks there might only be one way in and out. The chances of anything of value being left in your car aren't too good either, considering the area that this is in, not too bad during daylight hours, but only ones left after dark are the criminals.
Millions of girders Girders for me Millions of girders Girders for free
Girders come on a truck They were put in place by some schmuck From the contractor in town-own If I had my little way I'd place girders everyday Then watch as they collapse and smash and the cars or vans
@leavethegun-takethecannoli: I doubt that there would be any donks. I'm pretty sure you had to pay to park there. $2000 for car + $15000 for wheels (assuming they aren't rent to own) = no money left to park
@wrx-tyrannosaurusWrx: I'm just waiting for a play on that one picture: "I have no idea what you're talking about, so here's a girl with pancakes on her boobies."
@Skunky: *sigh* why do I participate in these comment threads? I just went off on a search for a picture like that and found that "pancake boobs" does NOT yield the desired results. Yikes.
@BigHarv: Brother says this parking deck is one of the newest, sturdiest looking ones in Midtown. Apparently quite a few BMW 3 series, X3s, and X5 have been lost/caused the collapse
@Engineerman: Georgia Tech is a public school so I'm guessing all construction projects go through the state to the lowest bidder. This isn't part of the Tech campus anyways.

I'd bet dollars to donuts it was Whiting-Turner. I've never seen such incompetence.
