Turning billboards into "living, suspended bamboo gardens" sounds like a great idea. What's unclear from the article is whether these are old billboard stands (is that what you call 'em?) being repurposed to never become ad spaces again? And if they are, would the bamboo always remain on the platform even if they were to be ad spaces again? Any way you slice it, we need all the green infrastructure we can get. And if these billboards could be turned into little bioremediation stands, that would be incredible. (My idea, to take stormwater, pump it up the billboard stand (perhaps via solar pump), through the plants to be remediated and back out as clean water.
Pair some of the above with a few "anti-billboard" artworks below and you've got yourself a totally different city.
