The Mile-High Skyscraper would measure 5,577 feet (1,700 meters) in height, roughly double the size of Dubai’s Burj Khalifa, which comes in at 2,722 feet (830 meters).

This super-tall building is set to reach a height of 1,700m and host up to 55,000 people in Tokyo bay, an inlet southeast of the Japanese capital.

If the plans are accepted – ‘Sky Mile Tower’ would be surrounded by a series of man-made hexagonal islands, These islands are designed to protect Tokyo from flooding and act as foundation for homes for around half a million people.

This Mile skyscraper and satellite islands, also come equipped with wind, solar and algae farms to provide electricity.

The tower’s facade has meanwhile been designed to collect, filter and store water from the clouds to reduce the load on the plumbing system of pumping water to the top floors.

To tackle the question of vertical transport, the tower would make use of ThyssenKrupp’s cable-free, magnetic levitation elevators, which can run vertically and horizontally.

This Mile tower will have multilevel sky lobbies where residents would share amenities such as shopping centres, restaurants, hotels, gyms, libraries, and health clinics.

If the plans approved, the Mega-tall building is set to be completed by 2045.
