... we have to increase the space allotment for a car in an underground garage to + or - 350 sq. ft. per car... It is therefore evident that the most economical parking in an underground garage is at a right angle.

OBS

underground parking: Note that although this term is equivalent to "stationnement souterrain," it may also cover the concept of parking space. The other English terms on this record cannot designate the latter concept. Also, underground parking is always used in the singular, never in the plural.
