A 6,000-space bicycle parking lot will soon open in Amsterdam, the Netherlands and is quite unusual: it was built underwater.
The location is under water in a pond in front of Amsterdam Central Station, cycling magazine Weelz reported. To set up these spaces, the workers had to drain the waters of the Open Havenfront.
The budget for this achievement was 60 million euros (approximately $87 million). This underground location will provide more space on the surface for pedestrians and cyclists.
On Twitter, one of the civil engineers who worked on this project, Anton Nikitin, shared a preview of some photos of this new, modern-looking parking lot.
The City of Amsterdam is due to inaugurate it at the end of January.
