    As seen previously, you could add your own windows

    I know I would do it if I just happened to have 8 LCD screens laying around.

    Perhaps you can try your hand at a Virtual Window.

    The creative person behind this project also had a similar problem with his neighborhood previously posted here on slashdot.

    You can also click on the following link to his cityscape project.

    I can't imagine what his neighbors must be like to cause such a tremendous undertaking.

    Just look this pic

    Fake windows with a fake view, next to a FAKE PLANT.

    When I see these things, I feel so lucky to live in Finland, surrounded by thousands of acres of forests and lakes, where I can easily meet with all sorts of wild animals doing what they do. Reminds you that there's some real life in this world still. Who knows how many natural resources were destroyed to make those LEDs and the electric and computing power to make it all work. The real thing is cheaper and looks better.

    I don't see any mention of her being his girlfriend. The candid photo slyly inserted into the mix implies that this is so, but never says it...

    Nice of him to mention her name in the text as well. The picture by itself might have been too subtle.

    Your right, but if you look around his site, you can find this pic of her in a bikini top on their trip to Mexico. I am leaning that she is his girlfriend.

    If you go to this page, you'll notice that he took a stock photo from Corbis as the basis of his model (probably taken from where you suggest) and then Photosop/GIMP-ed in the Chrysler Bldg, WTC (which seem to have been removed from the final version) and then added an imaginary building in the foreground to increase depth-of-field.

    Really cool project, even if he'd completely made the whole skyline up.
