Talk:Shimizu Mega-City Pyramid

the Discovery Channel special. The fact that it actually improves travel across the city for the individual, while eliminating the risks of human drivers was intriguing. Whether or not the structure can be created securely enough to avoid attack from natural AND man-made disaster (from inside or out) is the biggest question on my mind; well, that and the question of a sustainable and efficient power supply (the Discovery Channel program noted it's energy being hydro- and wind-generated). I mean, given the actual geometry of the structure--if this IS in fact an idea that proves practical and functional--other structures could be built next to it, and then in the future, new structures could be built on top of those higher and higher, using the original structures as the base of the larger new pyramid! This could solve many many problems that we face as a human race. I'll be waiting in anticipation for new developments on this project! --David Shaeffer, Chicago IL

Perimeter of the foundation above ground would be 2,000 metres. Which means that one side is 500 meters. Then the area should be 500 m x 500 m = 250,000 square meters. However, the article continues that the area of the foundation is 8 sq kilometers. Can somebody explain this. I think the figures are

Man and woman, this has to be one of the coolest ideas I've heard in a long time, combining the most sturdy base structure ever designed in history--the pyramid--with the technology and architecture of the present and the future. The 21st Century has finally arrived! I sat hypnotized in awe watching

This article seems to me to be presenting the subject as though it is a project that has a good chance of being attempted. As this is really just a cool idea and not a project the Japanese government will actually plausibly be working on, the article should probably be rewritten to reflect this and

I think it's a stretch to claim that it would answer Tokyo's space problems. Tokyo has a population of 12+ million and the metropolitan area of 30 million. Adding less than one million living spaces would only help alleviate the problem. I suggest that a more feasible way would be to simply make

I personal think it would be incredible thing to live in, at least to see. Anyway i would not set foot in it until it has been there for at lease ten years because i wouldn't know how the sea floor would take the support beams. But when they get that structure completely built I would like to see
763:
Pretty much all the math in the article is terrible. A square with 2000m perimeter has 500m sides and therefore 0.25km^2 area, not 8km^2. I'd remove the wrong parts, but considering that entire section is unsourced I can't tell which parts those are.
744:
This is not the kind of subject where we can expect consistent numbers from reliable sources, because it's a fairy-tale rather than an actual building. It's probably better to either remove contradictory claims, or to put them in context

It does seem pretty awesome, I hope it works out. For any other country, I'd say this is a huge waste of time and resources, but Japan's population density is crazy high. This is just so cool.
