Additional lighting has also been installed on each side of the four-story garage, allowing employees to walk around the building if needed and still feel safe. As employees reach the entrance to the garage, the safety measures continue. The actual entrance gate is set back approximately four car-lengths into the garage, which allows cars to pull into the garage instead of backing up on the street. To activate the gate, employees run their Temple ID card through a scanner, which ensures that only employee parkers are using the garage. And at the garage entrance, there is a guard booth that is staffed 24 hours a day.
Guards have a clear view of all cars and pedestrians entering and exiting.
Once inside, the first thing most people notice are the lights. There are a lot of them. This helps make the garage one of the best lit in the city. This gives a softer atmosphere and takes away that cave-like feeling many garages have. Another lighting measure that makes a difference is the type of lights used.
