    Taipei 101 causes local earthquakes. This, 2KM tower would have to have a MUCH bigger footprint than what they are suggesting. Crazy idea and would love to see it happen but has about as much chance as world peace atm...

    Anyone remember the Megatowers from the Sim City 2013 'cities of tomorrow' expansion? You can reduce the need to get people in and out of the tower by co-locating business, residential and retail all in one tower. You're welcome lol.
