Freedom Ship

At the moment, there already are a few lands below sea level, which have to build and or maintain dams and use water draining installations to avoid being swallowed by one of the biggest force of nature: water. It gets warmer and warmer with every year and sooner or later the ice from the Poles will start to melt, rising the level of the sea and I think there’s no one on this planet that could stop or prevent this.

The designers who imagined such a masterpiece estimated that will take three years to built a floating town able to host: 18,000 living units, 3,000 commercial units, 2,400 time-share units, 10,000 hotel units, a World Class Casino, a ferryboat transportation system, a World-Class Medical Facility, a School System that gives the students a chance to take a field trip into a different Country, an International Trade Center and more than 100 acres of outdoor Park, Recreation, Exercise and Community space for the enjoyment of residents and visitors. If someone would ask me what would be the safest place to be, I’ll just tell him that I’m not afraid of water anymore.
