Msheireb Downtown Doha (MDD) has been awarded the Guinness World Record for the Largest Underground Car Park, with over 10,000 parking spaces.
The car park, which is situated in Msheireb Properties (Qatar), is one of the world’s largest underground parking lots, spanning six 3-6 level floors.
‘We wanted to reclaim outdoor spaces for the community by removing vehicles from the streets around Msheireb,’ said Msheireb Properties CEO Eng Ali Al Kuwari.
‘The Guinness World Records™ for the Largest Underground Car Park is a testament to our dedication to creating a sustainable and innovative city district that prioritizes the well-being of our community. By locating car parking and building services underground, we enabled architects to design attractive buildings with active façades on all sides.’
The previous record holder was the LIVAT Shopping Centre in Daxing, Beijing, China, which had 6,652 spaces. However, MDD’s car park surpasses this with 10,017 spaces, making it the new record holder.
This achievement highlights MDD’s commitment to sustainability and innovation. The car park, which took three years to complete, offers flexibility and convenience to visitors. It features entrances for both cars and pedestrians.
