My friends that live upriver have exactly that. A Century Farm with a broken down dam and barn with a 60ft ridgeline 30ft in the air athwart the prevailing winds (up and down the valley). It's a huge vortex generator prolly good for 10s of kilowatts itself.

They spend their days in Leftist struggle.
