Below is picture of a downtown building that houses college students. This building provides 800+ students with affordable housing, and access to many amenities inside the city. Instead of building 800+ individual houses for the students a single large building that used to be a hotel is repurposed, reducing on energy costs. Land is saved as a result of housing people together, as well as transportation costs, food, and electricity. This building is an example of how structures should be built in the future,e.g., saved energy, land, and transportation costs. [1]: https://edxuploads.s3.amazonaws.com/14163571195696545.jpg
