    Default Miapolis - Contained, Self-Sufficient 3000ft Tower in Miami

    I ran across this. What do you guys think. Apparently there is some truth to this attempted project but I'm sure to what extent.

    "Miapolis, the proposed world's tallest building at 3,000 FT high, is an icon building re-defining Miami as a cosmopolitan city, a worldwide tourist destination and an international financial center. Miapolis is a metropolis in the sky, self-sufficient, "platinum green" sustainable, environmentally friendly and with a remarkable economic impact leaving no one behind."

    kind of throws off the skyline...look how huge it is compared to the rest of the buildings.

    Looks like one of the towers in Lord of the Rings...just need to put a flaming eye ball in the middle
