Starscraper

from We Have Concerns Hosted by Jeff Cannata/Anthony Carboni

Architecture firm Clouds Architecture Office has proposed a building that, instead of being supported by the ground and reaching up into the sky, would instead hang suspended from an asteroid. Named Analemma, the proposed skyscraper would be the tallest building ever created, and would travel thousands of miles each day between the northern and southern hemispheres in a figure-of-eight loop - including a daily pass over New York City. Anthony and Jeff discuss the concept and decide whether living there would be the best or worst thing. GET BONUS EPISODES, VIDEO HANGOUTS AND MORE.
