Old School Green Roof


It's surely not the first green roof but this hotel is over a hundred years old. This was the eco-vacation destination of Norway before eco-vacation destinations existed. Now green roofs are a hot new trend. Well they are a hot trend, obviously they aren't new.

On a side not, I've seen weeds and saplings growing out of the gutters of old houses in NJ (and the engines of rusted out cars in their driveway). Were those people just enviromentalists ahead of their time? I always thought they were just trashy.
