What a great live model for rebuilding smaller homes for perhaps the homeless? There are some great design ideas even just looking at the photograph of the towers.
Use "green" materials and construction, given that Donaldson had spent time in these towers he has the "feelings/memories" of what a lot of people long for...a simple home.
