Heh. I'm about to put an offer on a house here in Philly that has what
looks to be a ~16 car garage (it's at least 50' deep and easily 30' wide).
It also has no posts or columns anywhere in the middle, thanks to the roof
being supported by a couple 16" I-beams. :-)
Of course, the fact that the house needs a fair amount of work (built in
1825) and the roof on the garage has collapsed might explain why they're
only asking 250k for it. But still a good deal as far as I'm concerned.
