Could you live in 344 sqft?
Architect Gary Chang created an innovative sliding wall system to make 24 room options in his tiny Hong Kong apartment.
Most impressive (other than 24 room options in 344 square feet!): All the eco-friendly attributes, the golden-tinted windows that add warmth (and happiness), and mirrored ceilings that make the room look larger and increase the light value in the the room.
What a genius, small-space inspiration!
If you could have moving walls and flexible room options, could you live like this? Or is this only a single person's dream?

Motorcycle and Scooter Parking Expansion
With rising gas prices and temperatures, more and more folks are opting for alternative transportation such as motorcycles and scooters. Parking for cycles and scooters has always been difficult. Pennsylvania Law prohibits motor vehicles from driving or parking on sidewalks. The Philadelphia Parking Authority has established new parking zones to accommodate motorcycles and scooters in the area between Arch and Locust, Broad and 20 Streets. Only motorcycles and scooters are permitted to park in these zones, where the meter fee will be one-half the prevailing rate on the block. Motorcycles and scooters may not park on the sidewalk in that area. Doing so will result in a $76 fine.It is unlawful to park scooters and cycles on sidewalks
