We have noticed some of the existing factory buildings near the dock. Similar to how coral requires some sort of existing structure (rocks) in its incipient stage, it would be interesting to use these old structures as a starting point for our own "coral". The strategy involves maintaining the exterior form but gutting or incorporating the interior of these structures for our biolab or monastery. We have found some interesting examples:
