I want to like this. My younger self admires the idealism of this project. My real world self see's homeless people splicing into the wiring to run heaters, TV's etc. I smell urine and see needles on the floor. Am I too jaded peeps?
At one time it was architecture being used as a billboard....not its billboards being used as architecture. a question of who's hiding behind the other?
