Some quotes from the article about the garage in Philly:
It was "an extraordinarily expensive solution," Zuritsky added quickly - more than $140,000 for each of the 64 spaces in the four-story, subterranean framework.
Zuritsky said that about 75 percent of the 1706 Rittenhouse's system cost was "the 45-foot hole we dug to keep the parking underground. There was water deep under the building - underground streams that were already well-known - and the farther they dug, the more they hit, he said. Some water was pumped out, the rest managed with huge stones that help the water to drain around the foundation.
