“At the heart of this proposal lies a deeply human problem. Food deserts. Across Chicago, many low income neighborhoods struggle to access affordable, nutritious food. Grocery stores are scarce, fresh produce is often out of reach, and fast food becomes the default not by choice, but by circumstance.“

What absolute pathetic bovine excrement. Not that it isn’t somewhat true, but the reason it is somewhat true is swept under the rug.

If they actually go through with building this, Chicago is more stupid than I thought possible.

“Prank” is the right word.

I had to go look it up, because this is the most bass ackwards thing I’ve heard of lately. The link confirms that they thought this would be a good model for food deserts.

Imagine being so incredibly stupid that you think the people in these “food deserts” actually care about their environment or want to lift a solitary finger to do what it takes to raise their own food.
This is college educated, white-guilt liberalism in a nutshell.

Think of the weight on the structure from moist soil and water, then the elements. High winds off the lake. It’s just a prank, right?

This has to be one of the most idiotic proposals yet by left-leaning nitwits. I bet a bunch of lettuce would cost hundreds of dollars from their gardens. The big question...are there enough brain-addled, blinded-from-reality rich people to invest in this lefty wet dream???
