Sky City - The Future?
Apparently some guys got the idea to build a huge Sky City - three connected mega towers, including a stadium - to help combat urban crowding. To me it just sounds like they’re shifting the problem upwards (it’s still a whole lot of people in a small place, isn’t it?), but damn that looks cool. True, it would be interesting to see whether people would become disconnected with the world (if you have everything in your own little tower city (possibly even an airport!), why would you ever leave? Would you care what happens on the outside?). There are a plethora of questions about whether humanity could handle such a living situation but at the end of the day… That’s one incredibly sweet idea they came up with 
Some Japanese architects want to change our approach to urban crowding. They think we can live in the sky, and they hope to build a vertical city twice the height of today’s tallest skyscraper that would house, employ and entertain hundreds of thousands of people. But can it be built? And would it be safe? Take a look at what’s envisioned in this composite of three Sky City towers joined to form a “hyper” city.
