The idea is simple enough. Imagine a 30-storey building with glass walls, topped off with a huge solar panel. | On each floor there would be giant planting beds, indoor fields in effect–Jeremy Cooke —Vertical farming in the big Apple (BBC)
What will they think of next — maybe, taking an urban residential skyscraper, tilting it on its side, and chopping the apartments into separate structures — each with their own private entrance and yards?
I love the future!
