‘Packed like sardines’: Some Golden Mile Tower tenants concerned about parking situation on upper floors after fire

Automobiles” PACKED LIKE SARDINES”

LHN Group, which operates and owns the Golden Mile Tower car garden through its conglomerate LHN Parking, confirmed to CNA that it is working with the authorities to find the cause of the fire. &nbsp,

The business apologized for the pain the consumer caused by the company saying it was unable to provide more information as investigations are in progress. &nbsp,

The team acknowledges common concerns and may work closely with the appropriate events and authorities to resolve any issues and to take additional safety measures where necessary.

It did not respond to inquiries about the greatest number of cars allowed on each floor and the way the vehicles were parked in accordance with its rules. &nbsp,

Since 2018, several vehicles appeared to be permanently parked on degrees four, five, and six, according to Joseph ( not his real name ), who owns two models in Golden Mile Tower. &nbsp,

” The entire floor is full of cars. If you count, it’s about 100 to 150 vehicles”, he said, adding that they were mostly novel and unregulated cars. &nbsp,

On these surfaces, Joseph noted that there are more cars than there are parking spaces for them, and that other guests or tenants are unable to enter or leave without passing through these lots. &nbsp,

He was concerned that the building’s architectural integrity would be impacted by the weight on the third, fifth, and sixth flooring, which were constructed in the 1970s. Joseph continued,” Joseph, I frequently could n’t find available car park lots despite paying for season parking.”

With the vehicles parked so tightly together, it could also be a fire hazard, he told CNA. &nbsp,

Joseph claimed that OneService helped him and another residents report concerns about the vehicles, which were “packed like fish” to the government in 2018. &nbsp,

The Municipal Services Office advised them to get in touch with Golden Mile Tower’s control in order to resolve the issue in the reaction seen by CNA. &nbsp,

” We also did n’t follow up because there’s nothing we can do, since it’s privately owned”, Joseph said. &nbsp,

Because they usually take the train to work every time, Rachel ( not her real name ), who works in one of the stores in Golden Mile Tower, told CNA.

They were shocked to see pictures of the vehicles parked close to each other on the fifth floor after the fire started. &nbsp,

The majority of visitors would playground on the second or third floor, according to Rachel, who knew that the third to seventh floors were primarily occupied by vehicles owned by car leasing or dealership companies. &nbsp,

But often, these unregistered vehicles also occupy the second floor and users may raise the issue, she added. &nbsp,

” With regards to health, everybody will be concerned today. But since it’s under the car park control, there’s little we can really do”, she said. &nbsp,

” Hopefully, this will be a reminder to them that they need to be a bit more careful” .&nbsp,
