I can't decide if that is more or less crazy than a skyscraper in an earthquake prone area like that.
It really is awesome though.

Isn't the city square on the site of the old Tenochtitlan ruins?
Also, not sure I would want to build downward in a place that is:
A) Earthquake prone. (as Ingmar pointed out) B) An island in the middle of what used to be a lake and has been reclaimed.
If the only way to get out is to use repulsion gel, now THAT would be awesome.

I should get back to nature, too. You know, like going to a shop for groceries instead of the computer. Maybe a condo in the woods that doesn't even have a health club or restaurant attached. Buy a car with only two cup holders or something. -Signe

Crashing a plane into that thing would be tough.

As cool as it looks, I don't understand how you are supposed to go up or down that thing, unless they have invented slanted elevators that they don't seem to show.

Slanted elevators aren't anything new, I've seen a few at subway stations here. Granted, those are only over short distances but I don't see any reasons why the concept wouldn't work on a large scale. (edit) Also, this: http://www.skyscrapercity.com/showthread.php?t=469631

You think Terra Nova is awesome. Nope. Saying something isn't as bad as the curmudgeons do does not mean its awesome.

NOT a place I want to be when the lights go out. And yeah, "that looks like somebody is playing too much Minecraft" was my first thought.

Yes, I know I'm paranoid, but am I paranoid enough?
