Closing Bell: Post-Global Warming Digs

Forget homes on stilts. Should the oceans rise 20 feet, this new Walking House, built on six hydraulic legs, should help you get from waterfront up to Green-Wood Cemetery (the highest point in Brooklyn), with all your stuff intact. It’s solar- and wind-powered, so no global warming crisis will remove its usefulness. It does, however, sort of look like a giant metal tarantula.
