The problem with older buildings is that budgets are.. constrained. Which I think is the real reason a lot of these buildings, particularly in low income areas, haven't done anything yet. They don't spend money unless they really need to, typically.
No need for it to be that complex - a wire cage enclosure around a few parking spaces with keycard access is sufficient in the underground for an much smaller price.
Someone in a building I lived in bypassed the wire cage by cutting it open just enough to stick their arm in and open the inside door handle from the outside. One of my bike's wheels which was not locked up was stolen.
My point is there does need to be some thought put into the design for it to actually be useful and not a waste of money.
