High-density parking for a creative office conversion, concealed behind a green screen
Hyperloop Campus is a creative conversion of an industrial building into an R&D facility and corporate office campus in Los Angeles. When the project demanded structured parking for staff and visitors, the available footprint ruled out a conventional surface lot or multi-level garage. The site needed a high-density parking solution that could fit within the building envelope, deliver sufficient capacity, and meet the design standards of a campus where architecture and presentation matter.
ParkPlus installed 24 TP500 Triple Stacker parking lifts, delivering 72 spaces from a footprint that single-level parking could never have filled. The installation includes a green screen concealment that shields the stacker system from street view, integrating the parking structure into the campus aesthetic rather than exposing the mechanical equipment to the facade.
72 spaces. A single footprint. Nothing visible from the street.
The Hyperloop Campus parking system solves three problems at once. First, it delivers 72 spaces from 24 bays — three times the yield of a conventional single-level layout in the same floor area. In a Los Angeles creative office market where land is scarce and development density continues to rise, that multiplication of parking capacity within a fixed footprint is the difference between a project that works and one that falls short of code or tenant expectations.
Second, the green screen concealment means the mechanical system does not compete visually with the campus design. The stackers operate behind a facade treatment that reads as architecture rather than infrastructure. For a creative office conversion where the building’s character is a core part of its appeal to tenants, that visual integration is not cosmetic — it is part of what makes the project complete.
Third, the system is managed by a professional parking operator, Advanced Parking Systems, whose team was trained by ParkPlus on the machinery before operations began. That handoff — from installation to operational readiness — is part of how ParkPlus delivers projects of this type.

Adequate office parking on a constrained Los Angeles site
Creative office conversions in Los Angeles face a consistent tension: the buildings that make the most compelling workplaces — former industrial structures, warehouse conversions, R&D campuses — are rarely designed with structured parking in mind. Hyperloop Campus required parking for staff and visitors at a scale that the available footprint could not accommodate with conventional layouts. The site also demanded that the solution not undermine the campus aesthetic. Mechanical infrastructure visible from the street was not acceptable for a building where design is part of the tenant value proposition.
Triple stacker parking lifts with integrated green screen concealment
TP500 Triple Stacker parking lifts were installed to deliver 72 spaces from 24 bays — achieving the parking requirement within the available footprint through vertical stacking rather than horizontal expansion. A green screen was specified and installed to conceal the stacker system from street view, allowing the parking infrastructure to operate behind a facade treatment consistent with the campus design. The system was handed over to Advanced Parking Systems, whose operators were trained by ParkPlus on the machinery, ensuring a smooth transition from installation to active management.
From the very first handshake to the training of our staff after installation — a seamless, professional, consistent experience.

High-density parking lifts for office buildings and creative campuses
How do triple stacker parking lifts work in an office building setting?
In an office building, triple stacker parking lifts are configured to serve staff and visitor parking within a fixed footprint, typically where a surface lot or conventional structured garage is not feasible. Each unit stacks three vehicles vertically within the space of a single bay, tripling the parking yield of the available floor area without requiring additional land or a multi-story structure.
At Hyperloop Campus in Los Angeles, 24 TP500 Triple Stacker units deliver 72 parking spaces for staff and visitors on a site where conventional parking could not have approached that capacity within the same footprint.
Can parking lifts be concealed from street view in an urban office development?
Yes. Parking lift systems can be integrated with screening elements including green screens, architectural panels, and perforated facades that conceal the mechanical equipment from street view while allowing ventilation and operational access. The concealment treatment is specified as part of the project design and installed alongside the lift system.
At Hyperloop Campus, a green screen was installed to shield the TP500 Triple Stacker system from the street, maintaining the campus aesthetic without compromising the system’s operational capacity. For creative office conversions and design-forward developments where visual integration matters, this approach allows the parking infrastructure to disappear into the architecture.
What is high-density parking and why does it matter for office developments?
High-density parking refers to systems that deliver significantly more parking spaces per unit of floor area than conventional single-level layouts. Mechanical parking lifts achieve this through vertical stacking — double stackers deliver two spaces per bay, triple stackers deliver three. For office developments in dense urban markets, this multiplication of parking yield within a fixed footprint is often the only way to meet code requirements or tenant parking expectations without acquiring additional land.
In Los Angeles and other high-growth markets where available land continues to decrease and development density increases, high-density parking systems represent a practical response to a structural supply problem. ParkPlus has completed office parking installations across Los Angeles, New York, and other major markets. View the full project portfolio for examples.
Are mechanical parking lift systems practical for parking operators to manage?
Yes, and the key to a successful handover is operator training. ParkPlus includes staff training as part of the installation process, ensuring that the parking management team understands the system’s operation, safety protocols, and routine maintenance requirements before the facility goes live. A professionally trained operator running a mechanical parking system is no more complex than managing a conventional parking structure — it requires familiarity with the equipment, not specialist engineering knowledge.
At Hyperloop Campus, Advanced Parking Systems manages the TP500 Triple Stacker installation. Their team was trained by ParkPlus following installation and has been operating the system since launch.
What parking options are available for industrial-to-office conversion projects?
Industrial-to-office conversions present a consistent parking challenge: the original structure was not designed for the parking demands of an office tenant base, and the site typically lacks the land area to add a conventional parking structure. Mechanical parking lifts are well suited to this context because they maximize the yield of whatever parking footprint is available — whether that is a former loading area, a ground-floor bay, or an at-grade lot adjacent to the building.
Double and triple stacker systems are the most common solution for office conversion parking, delivering two to three times the spaces of a conventional layout without structural modification to the building.
