The Future of Parking Has Arrived in Seattle With a Robotic Garage Planned for South Lake Union


Music icon John Lennon penned the lyrics, “There are no problems, only solutions,” and it seems GLY Construction has taken that to heart. The Bellevue contractor plans to build an underground robotic garage as part of its construction of a new addition to the Seattle Cancer Care Alliance clinic in the South Lake Union neighborhood.

The planned three-level robotic garage will be the first of its size and scale on the West Coast, the employee-owned general contracting firm says. The garage will be constructed beneath a narrow, 240,000-square-foot, five-story building addition that GLY will construct for the Seattle Cancer Care Alliance (SCCA).

The SCCA addition will feature a centralized valet-parking location where patients can drop off their vehicles, which will then be transported to the underground garage. The parking facility will feature robotic lifts and platforms that will move vehicles vertically and horizontally to a designated spot.
