"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 people."The plans for Tokyo Sky City are to build towers up to 3300 feet tall. That’s about twice the size of today’s tallest skyscrapers. Towers would be connected to provide housing, office, and recreational units.
Connected towers would provide everything the residents might require. It is entirely possible that some people would live and die at a ripe old age without ever leaving the city within a city.
Such massive structures will require engineering and building material break through before they can be constructed. For example, a new type of concrete will have to be developed that will retain its strength over hundreds of years.
While such plans seem to be futurist and may yet take decades to actually be developed into construction no doubt that in time such cities will be build. The way cities have evolved in the past is not efficient either in the use of land resources, in the supply of utilities like electric power and water, and in transporting people between work and resident areas.
