I started at Quicken in Dec and I get free parking in downtown. Is your friend in a special lot?

Thats a cool building but F@#K paying 18 bucks a day to park. Sound like parking for Monster Jam or something.

I'd be wondering when I'd return to my car to find large chunks of the structure lying on it.....

It was first Henry Ford's garage, then when that was demolished it became a theatre that cost $5 mil to build back in the '20s. Follow the link it's a cool read.
