Imagine a multi-layered city (About 6 x 6 city blocks in area), and about 10 stories high (3 below ground and 7 above).
Now imagine 5 multilayered cities all arranged in the shape of a Pentagon but interconnected. Each city would have a floor for workspace and offices, another floor for entertainment, another for hospital and wellness offices, another for retail stores, and another for food markets, another for utilities, etc....
Each city would have about 1 level of condo style apartments (About 1000 apts per city) that would range anywhere in size from 400 sq ft to 800 sq ft, and they would collectively take up one level of each city. Each city is equipped with turbo-lifts and transport pods. The housing would be on the top floors for the view (Maybe even a balcony).
In the central part of the pentagon arranged cities would be an enormous park for leisure and exercise, and in the center of the park would be an elevated hub (Kinda the shape of the Space Needle in Seattle). It would be connected to each city with elevated transport tubes coming and going from each city. No need for a car or parking.
Maybe on the top of the central hub, you could catch a flying VTOL transport to the nearest airport or wherever,
On the top of each building would be solar panels for electricity, and collection for rainwater that would be gravity fed to the bottom floor for processing and where the other utilities are housed.
In total, the combined cities would have a population of around 100,000, and no streets or personal vehicles. You could even have a scaled down version with only one city building for a population of 10,000.
I know it's wild and crazy, but it's fun to let the imagination off it's leash for a fun romp.
Maybe we could become the Jetsons.
Personally I would rather live in the country, but many choose otherwise, so ....
