Can the principles of the garden cities movement be applied to high density living?

This dissertation is focused on the application of the Garden Cities Movement which was developed by Ebenezer Howard during the industrial revolution and whether it's possible for the principals of this movement to be fulfilled by the modern residential building the Aqua Tower. The Aqua Tower was built in Chicago and completed in 2009. The reason for this comparison, is to understand to what extent that the building will be able to match up to the functionality of a small town or city in terms of catering to its residents. Not only is the ability to house these people being put into question, but also to what extent the building caters to them in terms of agriculture, self- sustainability, mental wellbeing, health, and educational support.
