it's because it's a euro design firm, if you look at some of the newer apartment complex designs in denmark etc, they have bike paths that go to every apartment (even on the tenth floor), gardens on the roof, etc.

i can't imagine them actually putting a moat around a stadium though. besides being expensive and providing no return, it also creates bottlenecks on the bridges, which is bad for a place where 80k people are going to come in and leave at one time. it's also a security and safety issue.

60 Minutes just ran the story on the architect and showed the model of the stadium. The man is innovative and original.
