Looks like my old science fiction posters...
Why not spend the excess of money on something more useful...climate for example...
The idea is however funny and I gather that's what you mean.

Very funny:
I can see myself running around the ground floor trying to catch up the entrance:
"stop,wait for me!"
I hate the approach: "the building will move for you...
And what happens when the tenant above turns on a different axis? The cross section is not circular so there is a pretty good chance you'll have his floor projecting over yours.
And imagine your neighbor going on holidays, leaving his apartment on an inconvenient (for you) rotation
"eh, can you leave me a key to your apartment? I might want to turn it around, it is blocking my sky..."

my closest encounter to this thing is a high rise where the top floor rotates, but this one blew me away....driving this morning to the office i was thinking about the same thing you quoted: what a waste of energy unless wind or solar driven...it seems we are not helping planet hearth with this machine but i can assure u this guy is selling.

I think it's bloody great!

And they are promoting them as being environmentally friendly, so even better. In with the new, I say!

Cheers,

What happens if the guy on the other side of the building from you wants a bit of sun or a view too?

i went to eat at one of those revolving restaurants once. a friend inadvertently put her bag on a part of the floor that didn't move next to the table. she had chase around the building for it an hour later . . .

Does not really come as a surprise that quite a few rotating towers, not to mention cities, are at least planned around here ...
