Bosco Verticale (Vertical Forest) is a pair of residential towers in the Porta Nuova district of Milan, Italy, near Milano Porta Garibaldi railway station. They have a height of 111 metres (364 ft) and 76 metres (249 ft) and will host more than 900 trees (approximately 550 and 350 trees in the first and second towers respectively) on 8,900 square metres (96,000 sq ft) of terraces. Within the complex is also an 11-story office building; its facade does not host plants.
The towers were designed by Boeri Studio (Stefano Boeri, Gianandrea Barreca and Giovanni La Varra). It also involved input from horticulturalists and botanists.
The building was inaugurated in October 2014

Wow what a fascinating concept. Puts a whole new meaning to the potted plant on the patio. Thanks for a very interesting share.

Wow, what an ingenius pair of towers.  Can you imagine living in one or better still in a town made up of lots of these vertical forests..  So cool.. I'd seriously want to live there.
Simply brilliant.  Thanks for sharing.
