New apartment building is geared for motorcycle owners

6/12/2012

​The great thing about motorcycles is that you can take your transportation inside with you if need be; the not-so-great thing about apartments is that most aren't built to allow that. Now, though, Japanese architects have come up with a solution: an apartment complex that integrates a bottom floor bike garage into every unit. The "NE Apartments" also have double-wide entrance doors and a courtyard wide enough to turn around your bike. The only downside: Now you won't be the coolest one in your building.
