Personally, the idea of living in an oversized tripod does not appeal to me at all...
It makes for cool concept designs though.

No, they arent breasts, they're personalities, because its ok to like a girl for her personalities
It takes a big man to cry, but it takes a bigger man to laugh at that man

Yeah, those were basically what I was describing to you. Living in an oversized tripod and living in a cantilever beam of a building wouldn't result in much of a difference for city dwellers (if at all).

To be totally honest, I would want to own it. Can you imagine the money that you would rake in with rent, utilities, professional sports, shopping, etc? I would only live there for a while as a tennant (until it got old) but I would have the entire top part as my own estate if I owned that behemoth.
Until you find something worth dying for, you're not really living.
