Spanish term or phrase: guardería
No sé a que se refiere esta palabra en la siguiente frase.

Además de las grúas torre se dispondrán otros medios de elevación, como son grúas automóviles, para la ejecución de la estructura metálica y la guardería, manipuladores telescópicos, montacargas, etc.

Agradezco cualquier sugerencia.

storage facility


Explanation:
Sería útil saber lo que están construyendo, y lo que es que se eleva. Una guardería nautica por ejemplo es donde se guardan pequeñas embarcaciones en estructuras verticales.

Thanks Lynne for the context. I still think it must be somewhere were items are kept.
