the comic opera

A few weeks ago i featured some videos describing ambitious and ridiculous road projects, fictional and real. In the futuristic video– which featured some gems: like heated roadways and punchcard voting system for cars– there images of elevators taking cars to within a few feet of their high-rise office desks.

Someone in NYC decided now was future enough and built that building, but this one is for housing people not corporations. 200 Eleventh Avenue is a construction project in NYC’s Chelsea neighborhood that puts a floor level garage attached to each apartment and reachable by elevator.

Fun stuff for those with at least 7 figures in their housing budgets.
