The single city that is currently using 1/4 of the planet's cranes :eek:
Toronto's construction boom all of a sudden seems very, very laughable. |

I just found this website..... too many pics to repost but you guys have to see this!
Dubai
Most of these were the concept drawings for the city... but keep in mind the concept drawings and the way most of these buildings have ACTUALLY turned out is NOT far off!
um wow.
It really is astonishing how with enough money and a fresh slate to work with, this is what modern cities could turn into!
this is a pic of the "new downtown" bc the old one was getting stale after only finishing building 1/3 of it!
