Nice spin on an old idea. Problem always seems to be crime moving in with unsecured public spaces though. Too bad, I like the concept.
Awful, so many years after Corbusier still this outdated nonsense comes up. Give it 15 years before they will tear it down again.
While everything tries to seem new and innovative, the living spaces are nothing new at all.
