I knew it. I was born in the wrong century. Maybe if I'd been able to wait 50 years or so.

Seriously, that is so cool. I would live there if I had the chance.

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

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.
