Comments on: Crazy Skyscraper Theme Park is a Vertical Amusement for New York City http://inhabitat.com/skyscraper-theme-park-for-new-york-city/ Green design & eco innovation for a better world Wed, 22 May 2013 15:39:26 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=abc By: lazyreader http://inhabitat.com/skyscraper-theme-park-for-new-york-city/comment-page-1/#comment-290399 lazyreader Tue, 11 Jan 2011 13:31:40 +0000 http://inhabitat.com/?p=204880#comment-290399 My comment could be sexist to both genders. We all know how egotistical architects can be. Today's architects are not concerned with the general welfare of human beings and practical reality. There concern is commissions and whats physically possible. Criticism is the only conceivable way to spread a sense of responsibility among them. And the best way to criticize is to profane and joke.

Interesting idea, but overall would most likely be highly unsuccessful. The bungee jumping in such an environment just seems outright dangerous.

I assume the architect here was a woman, desperate to make it in a mans world. Because it looks like a tampon. The buildings next to it look like the logo to some evil computer company. I can just picture riding a light cycle through Tron. For centuries mankind has erected very tall towers that some would argue are Freudian in nature.
