Tucson, Arizona's future skyline!:D

Now we all know that this will prob. never happen. BUT! It looks cool and was fun to do! Tuscon's future (fake) skyline!

What if Tucson were to start build up instead of building out? What if downtown Tucson were a thriving place for Commercial, Residential, and Entertainment buildings? Well if this were the case, maybe the skyline would be better than Phoenix! Maybe it would look a little something like this...

If you want me to post more pics, just ask in the comments below! If you want me to add more buildings, then just tell me in the section below! I used Google Sketch-up to do this and i used Paint to add in the extra vegitation.

Interesting renderings, but Tucson and Phoenix need to be a hell of a lot more concerned about generating street life through low-rise density. Look at DC for inspiration.

i used to create fantasy skylines when i was in high school (okay, and college) of what tucson/phoenix could look like. brother, tucson will be lucky to get another 20+ story building in the next 20 years is my prediction. but i hope you're closer to the mark than i am :-)
