What if New York City were totally trashed in a disaster? That was the premise for a design competition that spawned this Cloud City idea by Studio Lindfors. It was one the Selected Entries in the "What if New York City . . ." design competition, where designers dreamed up this concept where New Yorkers are lifted above the rubble in blimp houses, staying together as a community while crews clear away the mess below.

"A stunning survey of the latest evidence for intelligent life on Mars. Mac Tonnies brings a thoughtful, balanced and highly accessible approach to one of the most fascinating enigmas of our time."
--Herbie Brennan, author of Martian Genesis and The Atlantis Enigma
"Tonnies drops all predetermined opinions about Mars, and asks us to do the same."
--Greg Bishop, author of Project Beta
"I highly recommend the book for anyone interested in the search for extra-terrestrial artifacts, and the political intrigues that invariably accompany it."
--David Jinks, author of The Monkey and the Tetrahredron
"Mac Tonnies goes where NASA fears to tread and he goes first class."
--Peter Gersten, former Director of Citizens Against UFO Secrecy

How Jules Verne-ish.
Oddly Wellsian, too. The tethered blimps are vaguely tripod-ish.
I'm upset for the little panda bear. He's so cute!
Yeah, the panda got a bum deal. All the humans are partying it up in their distributed aerial city where, presumably, stuffed animals are no longer needed.
Last place I'd want to be after an urban disaster is in a tethered balloon with half-crazed New Yorkers...and how do "they" get those balloons in there in the first place?
Me, I'd ride my bicycle outta there...
