RE: The Process of Designing Our Hybrid Farm Apartment Building on the High Line in NYC

in #farm8 years ago

This last picture is beautiful. It's unfortunate that these sorts of projects are still constrained by the economics of shipping in food from "flyover states", as I wish I could visit this in real life!

Sort:  

Very true @lexiconical good observation. I think if the economics are close then it could actually happen and the real estate would be more valuable in the building because of the benefits.

A sudden spike in the oil price (or tax) would certainly reduce the arbitrage of transporting all food in, too.
