Finding Parking (and Missing Stop Signs) is Now Easier at Century City Mall

Yesterday, Westfield Century City announced the launch of a state-of-the-art, electronic parking management system called Park Assist®, something they say is a first for North America.

Here's how it works. In addition to what The Grove does with their "how many open spaces on this level" signage, the Century City's parking garage has retro looking lights over each parking space. If you're looking down an aisle of parked cars, lights above will be red. If any are green, that means the space is empty. It helps you easily find a space, but also distracts you enough to miss stop signs since you're always looking up.
