Remove the cars and I'd be sure this is an interior commercial room!

yeah what an over-done parking garage! Shocked

Just two lamps? Seems like four lamp T12 troffers were the most common.

Wow, and I thought this was the only parking lot with a drop ceiling.

very odd for a parking garage..with those fixtures it brings a typical retail or classroom ceeling to mind.

This parking lot seems very well lit too considering how far apart the fixtures are (10-12 feet apart) and having only two lamps? Even with four T12s i don't think it would be this bright. I would guess 4X F32T8 with a high ballast factor ballast for that kind of light. Unless these lights have the specular reflectors and combine that with a possible light level correction from the camera?

This would give me the strange feeling I was driving through the actual building. Laughing

I wonder how they keep all those ceiling tiles clean?

This is a cool setup! They make special ceiling tiles that have a vynl like coating which would explain why they aren't dirty, as for T12s I know of a parking garage with some of the same looking troffers but they have 6500K lamps and run 24/7

My grandparents have a 2X4 drop ceiling in the family room, though no ceiling mounted objects. the ceiling tailes have are flexible foam stuff with a plastic-ish laminate on the bottom (the side that you see) the ones at my school are made out of dried out pressed carboard/paper i think. They're rigid and made from some sort of compressed fiber material.

I know of a processing room at a fish cannery that has a suspended ceiling with 2X4 troffers...

The first thing I thought was "who puts a drop ceiling in a parking garage?" Rolling Eyes

Parking lot lit with fluoros

Sorry for the blur...
But this is an unusual lighting set up for parking lot lights.....

It was actually a bit darker than it looks, this was lit by 4x2 troffer fixtures with 2 F40T12 (yes you read it right, RAPID START T12) fixtures! They had bugs in them LOL!
