There is an impression of the Vorkontumaz which is recorded on the map of the Josephinian land survey from the late 18th century at the National Archives of Austria.

[4] Architect Marko Dragićević proposed a construction of the 150 m (490 ft) tall "skyscraper" named Methanscraper[5] on the island, for the management of the non-recyclable waste.

[6] The waste tower, "which visually resembles contraptions from Mad Max", is a vertical skeletal construction with capsules attached to a concrete core.

The capsules are filled with organic waste that turns into methane in time, which is then extracted into the depot cistern where it would be used for the production of electricity.

The sustainable system of the tower is not polluting air or the water and eliminates the need for classical landfills which cover much area.
