Am interested in visiting some interior living walls in the NYC area. Does anyone have any they can share or know where they are?  Thanks.

How about Philly?  Brand-new one at the new Papadakis Integrated Sciences Building at Drexel University in University City/West Philly, at the corner of 33rd St. and Chestnut.  I've seen it and taken some photos which I would like to post here in the near future.

Sorry about the photo quality...there was still construction going on, it was after hours, and I don't think we were supposed to be in the building, but you get the picture...

Thanks for the pic. Very nice.  I did go to NYC and looked at a wallypocket at a design center on green street. It did not look hippy to me, you couldn't really tell how it was there unless you knew. I will upload pic if I figure that one out. See what you think.

One problem with the Drexel biowall: plant selection.  The Ficus decora were already dying out from stem/root rot when I was there last month.  Some other varieties (croton, ivy) are potential problems, being mite-prone as they are.  It will be interesting to see what develops.
