So I came across a few blogs about farming in the city. “New York” the magazine just published an article about creating a skyscraper dedicated to farming. The building uses renewable energy (solar power, wind, and pellet power), recycles all the waste water as well as plant matter.

I quote from the article:

Imagine a cluster of 30-story towers on Governors Island or in Hudson Yards producing fruit, vegetables, and grains while also generating clean energy and purifying wastewater. Roughly 150 such buildings, Despommier estimates, could feed the entire city of New York for a year. Using current green building systems, a vertical farm could be self-sustaining and even produce a net output of clean water and energy.

The article even mentioned that 150 of these buildings would be enough to feed all of New York City for a year. Imagine getting fresh grocery right by you instead of having it trucked in from countryside farms.
