Just 2 weeks ago I saw a bunch of people climbing around the roofs everyday. They had blowtorches and plants. It was a strange sight. The school already looks straight out of a 60&#8242;s <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spy_film" title="Spy film" rel="wikipedia" target="_blank" class="zem_slink">spy movie</a>. Over the next few days it became clear they were installing a <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Green_roof" title="Green roof" rel="wikipedia" target="_blank" class="zem_slink">green roof</a>. I only had my camera phone the day they finished so you cannot see up close the roof but I think you can see the plants sprouting on the green roof. It is going to be very nice.</p>
