The Ansonia

According to Wikipedia, The Ansonia (a hotel on the Upper West Side) had a rooftop farm back in the early 20th century that "included about 500 chickens, many ducks, about six goats and a small bear."  Dairy cows could be stabled on the roof.  A bellhop would bring free fresh eggs to hotel inhabitants every morning.  Can you even imagine?
