very infobox! it seems like quite a few of us had to take the infobox approach (i.e., infrastructure supporting something above the street). maybe we need to be more creative/critical and ensure that the physical manifestation integrates formally?

yes if anything the Metabolists had little regard for specifics of site--this is where we can move things forward, and tune these machines to the particulars of a place. In my case, I am pairing the vertical structure with available downspouts--water will run inside the columns. There are also the rails on the street, which will feed the building compost and people (don't confuse the two) via mobile stairs and elevators.
