has an underground parking lot. The lowest row of openings facing the camera view are air vents that lead to the garage; is has (supposedly) been geogaphically positioned so that thermal currents coming up off of the ocean blow up through the parking lot and ventilate it with no consumption of energy from the grid. I'll be able to get back to you in october with an answer as to if it actually works.
