Car enthusiasts meeting place
Due to the large parking space, it is often used as a meeting place for private cars, and on holidays there are cases where the parking lot is full even though there are few people in the facility. For this reason, a banner is displayed in the area to call for refraining from parking for a long time, which is not the original purpose of resting.
In addition to rare supercars and sports cars, it is often used as a gathering place for custom cars such as VIP cars, lowriders, vannings, runaway tribes, and tuning cars. Currently, construction work is being carried out to prevent the entry of illegal low-down vehicles, and there are steps. Also, on Fridays and Saturdays at midnight, usage will be restricted due to neighborhood acoustic measures. However, the entry of lowriders is still continuing. The Kanagawa Prefectural Police and the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure, Transport and Tourism are collaborating to crack down on parking on a regular basis, and in the case of the crackdown on November 14, 2020, 20 cars were caught because the vehicle height was too low.[3]
