I just read about a new commercial venture to build a rooftop greenhouse on top of a church near Jamaica Station by a company called Gotham Greens. They have a great idea.

Mission


Move beyond the exurbs into agraria.   Housing tracts are now small farm tracts.  Instead of non productive 2200 sq ft lots, each home has 2 acres of arable land.   The stay at home dad and the telecommuting mom both fund the household.   People build and create goods, and can feed themselves as well as trade at the market.   There is still the mall and the theatre, but WiMax and hydrogen generators let us live loosely coupled with the utilities.
