Few weeks ago we have witnessed the opening of one of the world’s most amazing buildings, Burj Khalifa, that surely can be classified as one of the wonders of the modern civilization.
But, the race in building megastructures is continuing and there are some plans that could take that world’s tallest building title from Burj Khalifa. Miami could soon get some attention if the plans for building a ‘city within a city’ called Miapolis become real.
If those plans realize, the new superscraper in Miami will be a 183 metres taller than the Dubai’s Burj Khalifa. The future of this project is not certain but if they find investors for such megastructure Miami will certainly become a new attraction for thousands of tourists.

I’d like to see how that would fare against a Cat 5 hurricane.
That would be incredibly stupid of them to do.
That large of a building shouldn’t be built on the sand – plus that close to the coast.
