The Kim Van-Kim Lu development has three apartment buildings with minimal parking.

It is common to see many building apartments in Hanoi face the same problem. According to the Hanoi Department of Transport, Hanoi is home to around 6.9 million cars and motorbikes, but the city has only 90 hectares of parking space, which only meets just 10 percent of the demand.
