That's a lot of people to fit in a pyramid. That's a lot of businesses too. Its essentially a massive mixed use development in pyramid form with pretty renderings.
Very cool idea and scheme, but where will the homeless people stay? In the hallways and corridors of the pyramid? Where will that much trash go? How long will it take to fully inhabit a million-person compound, and will anyone be willing/able to carry the costs of the construction that long? Say someone had a business and needed 30,000 sq. ft. of warehouse space, would that be available in this? If not, they would have to find that outside of the pyramid, then it simply becomes what the suburbs are now, bedroom communities.
Once its completed and inhabited, what will an architect living there do? The building is done, the city is complete and operational; there's no buildings for us to build. :(

Interesting point from you, thanks for the pics
You must not have to been to Dubai. There's no homeless there. That country has money. That's a very creative ideal that I think the future is heading toward. The Japanese have been planning something like this for decades. But, taller and more like a giant skyscraper. But, like you said, who going to finance something like this. Leasing or building a crane to do building that huge would cost more than the total cost to build a US condo community. But, we must face it, the future is coming. I'm sure back in the 1400's no one thought we would have empire state building or square building in la defense, france.
Anyway, keep being creative and state future minded. Because what you create today could stick around for centuries if it's worth it. I like your blog man.
