In 2008, botanist Patrick Blanc transformed a tunnel in Aix-en-Provence into a garden that benefits the city:

- 650m² and approximately 20,000 plants
- Noise reduction of up to 40%
- Lower temperatures in the surrounding area

Grey or green urban environment?

Will this be sustainable in the Indian context? I’ve seen vertical greening on metro pillars in but it later fell into complete disrepair due to poor O&M.
