There are many examples of how a piece of architecture (usually museums/art galleries or other institutional buildings) can lift the profile of a city in some significant way. This Miami Florida building by Swiss architects Herzog and de Meuron demonstrates that even the humble car-park can be a "show-stopper".
It contains 330 carparks with 11 shops and 3 restaurants at ground level, with more shopping on the fifth floor and a roof top restaurant.
Compare it with our Central Market car-park, and perhaps we could also use an inspirational piece of architecture to add another dimension to this cosmoplitan precinct - it would be a magnet for tourists.
