I don't think temps would be THAT extreme several hundred feet up, right? Perhaps if they were building monolith towers thousands of feet tall, perhaps, but I'm curious if proper caretakers who ensured the trees would be well-fed and secured could make this happen!

Imagine traveling back in time to, say, 1905 or 1910, and then going up to New Yorkers and showing them that photo.

If I could even go back 20-30 years and show my younger self a photo from 2019, it'd be THE coolest thing ever!! I'd probably ask myself if flying cars and robots also existed or if we could live on the moon yet! Hudson Yards totally looks like something my younger self would've dreamt about and drawn (I used to love drawing futuristic cities and cars)!
