Vertical Farms in NYC from Work AC

Let’s bring farm back to the city, I guess that what Work AC thinking when they were asked by New York magazine to create a dream up proposal of NYC. We really like the idea of vertical farm, food being grown right in the city, urban farming. “We are interested in urban farming and the notion of trying to make our cities more sustainable by cutting the miles [food travels]” said Amale Andraos, co-principal (and wife) of Dan Wood (also co-principal) from Work AC. Underneath is what appears to be a farmers market, selling what grows above. Artists would be commissioned to design the columns that hold it up and define the space under: “We show a Brancusi, but it could be anyone,” says Wood.
