Why not make one tower with everybody in the city living in it while we're at it? Concentrating this much people working/living in a tower of this size destroys city life at the ground level. Why do people love New York, Hong Kong, London, Tokyo and Paris so much? It's all about what's happening in the streets, not the 78th inaccessible floor of a huge tower.

It is also interesting to know that almost all the components of the structure are to be factory made and assembled at site using huge cranes. It is hoped that the joints and connections are designed for resisting earthquakes of magnitude 7 and above. Dr.Parameswaran, Consulting Engineer.
