Aquarius Tower - Atlanta condos will have solar panels, wind turbines....and robotic parking?

Downtown Atlanta will soon have a "lighthouse in sustainable architecture as a counterpoint to the Georgia Acquarium." Aquarius Tower will feature many cutting edge features making it one of the most eco-friendly residential developments in the country. All 113 units will be south-facing and overlooking Centennial Park with solar panels and wind turbines for reduced energy consumption by the residents.

The roof-line of the building acts like a wind-collector that channels and concentrates wind into turbines integrated into the architecture.

Of particular note is what is being described as one of the most advanced parking systems of the twenty-first century. The space age parking technology optimizes space utilization and robotically stores and retrieves your car on command!

The condos feature all the amenities you would expect in homes starting at $300,000 for a one bedroom and should be available for occupancy by the end of 2009.
