My Japanese is a little rough, but I'm pretty sure the reporter is saying, "That excellent locality of Arlington on America's east coast really ought to think about installing one of these."
Melissa Esposito is the Car-Sharing and Bike-Sharing Program Coordinator for Arlington County and a Metro/bike commuter.
I'm going more for sustainable vehicle parking in the if-you-build-it-they-will-come mentality. I have seen those for cars, though, and they are pretty darn neat. (More importantly, you could be in the vehicle when it does its fun ride through the maze of robotics, and I doubt you could be on the bike to see the inner workings.) However, I supposed if you had to build a parking garage, I'd rather have the space-saving footprint of one of those than the sprawling asphalt jungles we're so used to.

Neat. They have these for cars too.
