Majesty Building
The Majesty Building is an incomplete 18-story office building in Altamonte Springs, Florida. The structure is being constructed by the religious broadcaster Associated Christian Television System, owner of the SuperChannel 55 television station. If completed, it would be the tallest building in Seminole County. Construction of the building began in May 2001 with a planned completion date of February 2003.

Construction has continued sporadically, but there is no planned completion date. Due to its proximity to Interstate 4 and towering appearance, the building is widely known as the I-4 Eyesore or Eyesore on I-4.

Multistorey Car Park
A multistorey car park (Commonwealth English) or parking garage (American English), also called a multistorey, parking building, parking structure, parkade (Canadian), parking ramp, parking deck, or indoor parking, is a building designed for car, motorcycle, and bicycle parking in which parking takes place on more than one floor or level. The first known multistorey facility was built in London in 1901 and the first underground parking was built in Barcelona in 1904 (see history). The term multistorey (or multistory) is almost never used in the United States, because almost all parking structures have multiple parking levels. Parking structures may be heated if they are enclosed. Design of parking structures can add considerable cost for planning new developments, with costs in the United States around $28,000 per space and $56,000 per space for underground (excluding the cost of land), and can be required by cities in parking mandates for new buildings.
