This building, scheduled to begin construction in 2010 actually twists to form different shapes and allow it's residents a variety of views - and it's green! In between each floor will be huge wind activated turbines that spin and move their respective floors. The turbines provide enough excess electricity to power all of the other energy requirements in the building. High rent tennants get to manually override the rotation to stick to preferred views. A mechanical marvel or nightmare? We'll see!
