Hanging Gardens of Philadelphia

I love this vertical, little garden in Philadelphia that caught my eye last summer. The potted plants are hanging by chains from the ledge of the roof, with larger planters below. A drip line “rains” water down on the whole thing.

It probably uses a lot of water (??) but it sure maximizes space and creates a cool section along the sidewalk. It was a great section of the street to walk past in the middle of the summer.
