London Considering Vertical Commuter Towns
London is visualizing how it will deal with the growing influx of people into its city. Even though it is less crowded that other cities such as Cairo or Paris, the next fifty years will be a crucial time to try and fit more people into a growing population, but with less amount of land available.
It is already in the forecast to build a large amount of commuter towns that will be strategically placed on the outskirts of the city. These dwellings will lack the width, but make up for it in height. With at least 100,000 people expected to be housed by 2016. It is the belief that one particular building should be created that provides all of these one hundred thousand residents with all the facilities they need – hospitals, schools, parks, etc.
