Wow. It`s hard for me to believe that a garage/house concept that I dreamed up on a computer program is now becoming a reality. It`s a very exciting time for our family.

Thanks againg for the updates!

Redcar,
Thanks. The driveways in this part of the country are concrete. I`m also having a concrete walkway around the house.

How many total square feet in the "home" (all levels) and how many in the garage?
A society willing to trade liberty for temporary security deserves neither and will lose both
ΜΟΛΩΝ ΛΑΒΕ
With the revised blueprints, there is 3625 heated sq feet (including the finished bedroom over the garage), and 1904 sq ft of total garage space. There is about 400 sq ft of storage over the 4-car garage section.
Storage room over 4 car garage:
There is enough floor space to fit 7 cars in both garages. With car lifts it`s theoretically possible to fit 10 cars. It`s more likely I`ll use no more than 2 lifts (8 car capacity).

The bricks and the roof shingles have arrived. We`re having a "walk-through" inspection with the builder in a few days to finalize framing, electrical and plumbing plans.
I made a last minute addition to the 4-car garage section when I realized that there was no natural light in the room. I added two 4 ft x 2 ft casement windows positioned about 8 feet high. It shouldn`t be too much of a security hazard and it still leaves room for wall shelves and cabinets.
Dean, I think that windows are a great idea! And the house is looking good as well! Keep the pics commin!

We had our "walk-through" inspection today with the electrical, HVAC, security and plumbing crews.
Thanks to the advice from those on Autopia, I`ve incorporated several changes:
* 400 amp service
* 8 (2x 8 ft) high output fluorescent lights and 2 175W Halide lights (i.e. Griots without the markup) in the 4 car garage.
* 6 (2x 8ft) fluorescent lights in the 2 car garage.
* 220 V outlets with separate 25amp circuits in the big garage for the car lifts.
* Washer/Dryer/sink and computer networking in 2 car garage.
* Both garages fully insulated.

Damn, your garage is going to be more luxurious than my first apartment in NYC.
This is just beautiful design work and a thoughtful approach from someone who loves cars.
Keep those pics coming...I`d love to see the rest of the house as well as it looks just as awesome!

hey dean,
if your driveway hasn`t been finished yet, why dont you consider something fancy that involves a combination of an interlock pattern combined with a regular driveway
the link can give you an idea of what i mean
