    I can't help but find it funny that a transationally static building would have an "engine room".

    It's also funny to think that, at some point, management will have to apologize to guests with a line as bizarre as, "We're sorry about the lack of rotation at the moment; it appears that the building has broken down." #oltaislandresort

    Now you just pay more for a view during the day instead of at night. #oltaislandresort

    Is this the same group who designed the rotating skyscraper in Dubai?

    Great idea, even for small, one-family homes. #oltaislandresort

    So now you'll all be paying even more for a room that only gets a view half the day.... #oltaislandresort

    When I saw that structure in the main picture I immediately thought of the lido deck from Wall-e. Is that weird? #oltaislandresort

    Make it glow red, and you can turn your living room into a cylon base ship.

    One of the links describes this as "A stellar explosion in your bathroom". Ya' know, I get that same effect for the price of three bean burritos.

    In reply to Tokyo Skyline Contrasts Against Grass Lawns in The Green Island Project
    I agree with UntrueProphecy. Pretty to look at and very healthy for a city's runoff problems but entirely impracticable. Grass would be a buzzkill:
    1. anywhere it snows
    2. anywhere it rains
    3. as long as people continue to mindlessly drop litter on the ground (main offenders - smokers, gum chewers, Tim Horton's coffee drinkers)
    4. when your shoe finds that hidden treasure someone's dog left behind
    5. when the dandielions take over
    6. when burrowing animals take over
    7. when City Hall has to choose between a massive Round-Up and pesticide spraying program or paying the wages for five thousand weed-pickers.
