I'm still thinking about this concept of "sea skyscraper". I think the the parts above surface would be used as living areas as well as some of the submerged parts (most likely the ones closer to the surface and on the outer wall), but that leaves a whole lot of space on the interior of the submerged part. Maybe casinos and other recreational facilities for the whole sea city?
