Sky City - Is it feasible?

TheWheelMan

Would it be feasible for someone to build a Sky City like model, maybe in a series of sets like Jack Tomlin has done with the West Park series? I would love something like that.

yes http://sketchup.google.com/3dwarehouse/details?mid=ed2f5393621a28246b4dfe114abc3809

I assume that's just exterior, though?

Greetings,
Given the nearly recursive nature of the nested structures, I'd almost see it as a procedurally generated model.

That would be fascinating...

What is it you want? That specific building or some generic arcology type structures?

Whitemagus at Rendo has quite a few tower sets. His latest hrcIV Super Towers might be just what you're looking for.

Sky City suppose to have 196 floors. I have just generated simple building with only 54 floors, but not generated interiors yet.
There is Genesis on the base plane for the scale. You can only imagine how big it will be with full floor count.

I think you're all missing the point of my question. The building is called Sky City. I wasn't referring to merely the external structure. I'd like to see a model (or as I said in my original post, a series of sets), of a city built on the inside of a building. I've seen a story about this building on tv, and the inner architectural structures and layout are fascinating.

you want some thing like this below - I use to have more will see if I can find them

Yes, exactly! Although the thing about the Sky City plans, as I recall, is that it is extremely beautiful, with plants and trees and such too.

Yeah, not sure Sky City looks exactly like that, but that is certainly the kind of thing I had in mind.

This is actual plans for Sky City:
