I'm impressed at how unobtrusive this car garage is! Woodland Park Zoo in Seattle had a planned $10 million multi-storey parking garage and the local neighbours voted against it and the zoo has temporarily abandoned the idea.

Planting and choice of colour definitely make a big difference. How many stories was the one in Woodland Park meant to be?
 
@snowleopard: Keep in mind that Singapore Zoo and Night Safari are out in the green. So there are not very much neighbours arround the zoo grounds who could be against a parking garage....;)
 
The parking garage at Woodland Park was in the final planning stages, but if I remember correctly it was 3-stories high. I know that the price tag was $10 million and the zoo is bordered on all sides by roads and neighbours and there was a worry over the appearance of a large concrete structure damaging the zoo's green reputation.
