Security

In underground or multi-story parking structures, provide a limited number of secure entry points. Ensure that all parking areas are well-lighted, but avoid lighting strategies that cause glare or otherwise negatively impact surrounding buildings. Consider locating parking in areas that can be informally observed by passersby.
