Although Post presaged many aeronautic innovations, not all of his expectations for the future panned out. One example was his idea for dirigible roof gardens. He told "The New York Times" in 1919 that one day there would be 1,000 foot long dirigibles that could be fitted for pleasure cruises and have roof gardens and balconies. Dirigible roof gardens did not catch on. The crash of the "Hindenburg" in Lakehurst, New Jersey in 1937, and, to a lesser extent, the "Roma" before it in 1922, effectively ended the market for public travel in dirigibles.
