Urban Pic of the Day - The Climatron

Extremely underrated combination of technology, biology, beauty and design.

When I worked at the Garden I was told the Climatron was the second most known structure in St. Louis. The Arch is obviously the first. As stunning as the design is, I seriously doubt that too many people even in St. Louis recognize it. But it is one of my favorites both for the structure itself and the amazing plants it houses. When its 2 degrees outside at the end of February and you are desperate for spring's arrival, there's no better spot.
