...and that attracted commentary all over the place about how it is architecturally impossible to have such a waterfall, blah blah blah.
I bring it up only because over in Dubai, they're planning to build something that, if the "Las Vegas" folks had imagined it, would have been similarly mocked. This is the rendering below and what's so special about it is...
...that the building will be in constant motion. That is, the floors will, uh, spin. Read all about it here.
Now, I can't quite see myself getting any rest in a room on the 80th floor of a building that is moving and I can't imagine that they've figured out how to engineer it so that it's not just a constant noisy machine to boot. Also, I'm fascinated that they can build anything that big for $700 million. They must not have unions over there, hmm?
But any which way, there was a time when something this bizarre, this freakish could only be conceived and planned for in Las Vegas. Have Sin City lost its nerve?
