Enhanced descriptions from Syndetics:
A cross-section of the urban environment, City Levels takes the view from street level, 50 metres in the air-a plane inhabited by office workers-and underground, where trains, tunnels, pipes and cables form unseen, intricate networks. As land values increase, and as cities become places of consumption rather than production, density will force vertical development.
