I don't have a picture, but will perhaps post one later on tonight...I gotta tell you about our basement people. We have a 2 level underground parking for the 4 buildings here on the Corniche Towers. We just started parking there about 1 month ago and recently just started using the second level. There are always voices coming from the corners and we ignored them and just hurried to the elevator. Come to find out there are people living in the Underground Parking Lot. There are various store rooms, equipment rooms, a laundry room, utility rooms etc.. There are men living there, some work as maintenance, some as security guards, a couple wash the common floors on each floor of the apts. Some wash cars...they take a bucket of water and will wash your car daily if needed. It costs about $30 US dollars a month to have a guy keep your car washed. They help carry up groceries if you need and you just tip them a few Dirhams.
They kinda freaked us out at first...but they are all friendly enough. Art looked into 1 of the rooms and they are pretty neat and tidy...bunk beds, a wash basin, a small refrigerator and lots of clothes hanging...the only problem he sees is that it is probably over 100 degrees in there at all times...our basement is hot and muggy. The Humidity is picking up and the temp is over 110 degrees now...The air is thick and our glasses fog up when we leave the A/C of the house or car. Did I mention that we have NEVER turned off the A/C since we moved in ?
