Its The Haiku Parking Garage! (No Really!)
:bounce:

<snip>

PALO ALTO, Calif. -- The new 211-car garage in the tony downtown of this San Francisco Bay area suburb should please the local literati.

Forget the red-tiled bathroom. The garage, which opened Wednesday, boasts a four-story wall of 16 haiku poems -- the Japanese verse with a five/seven/five syllable structure.

The poems, culled from 500 entries by local muses, touch on everything from parakeets to, of course, parking.

Parking on the third level
