Sky City, Sky City 1000 or Tokyo Sky City It is an ambitious project that has been studied in this city for two decades. Sky City is a skyscraper that seeks to take the title of the tallest building in the world by trying to exceed a thousand meters in height.
The idea of carrying out SkyCity It was from the construction company Takenaka Corporation, but so far the project has not been approved, because no one can guarantee the necessary security measures for a building of such magnitude.
Solutions? The specialists have raised many, being the most acceptable: to use a radius of eight square kilometers only to plant the bases on which the structure would settle; build the tower by segments, leaving a void of one story for every ten that are built (in these "hollow" floors the gardens and parks would be located); and make a circular structure to ensure the ventilation of the spaces.
Sky City has been conceived as a modern city that will combine futuristic architecture with an artificial environment. It is estimated that, within the more than eight hundred hectares that it would cover, it could house more than thirty thousand inhabitants and one hundred thousand workers or visitors to the office and shopping center environments, which would add an average of 150 thousand people who would transit its facilities through day.
For now, tests are being carried out to see if it is feasible to fight fires within such a tall structure, at the same time that they are testing designs for high-speed elevators with a capacity of more than seventy people. We will see what happens in the future, although we know that Japan It is one of the countries that has the technical and economic resources necessary to carry out a work of this magnitude.
