We've all been to revolving restaurants before, but a revolving apartment building? Imagine the motors needed to power the damn thing, and the engineering needed to create such a building. At least they took mother nature into consideration and implemented solar panels to keep it spinning all year round. Ah, the things you can do when you have the money...
Its nice having a nice view every day of the week though; hopefully the entrance at the bottom of the building doesn't move or the building has multiple entrances - otherwise it could be quite disorienting if you're going out early in the morning only to find that when you come back the entrance is in a different place. It would play havoc with knowing when you have sunlight too - you'd have it somedays in the morning, some in the arvo and some in the late arvo. All considered - telling your friends you live in a revolving building is cool enough for me
