This seems like a pretty cool project. One thing I like about this proposal is that the glass greenhouse would break up the rather monolithic brick south facade of the Prince Street Garage. Hopefully they can secure funding for this project.
Vertical greenhouse plans move forward

Plans are moving forward to build a greenhouse on a Lancaster parking garage.
Corey Fogarty, board president of the Lancaster Urban Farming Initiative, said the greenhouse could support 20 acres of fresh vegetables.
The vertical greenhouse, with an estimated $17 million price tag, would be built on the Orange Street side of the Prince Street Garage.
The greenhouse would be the second of its kind in the country. The other is in Wyoming. Fogarty is working with Vertical Horizon, a Wyoming-based company, to build it.
