Abstract
An airy penthouse on the 63rd floor of a brand new apartment tower affords a marvelous view of Songdo, mankind\´s latest attempt to build a "city of the future." This half-finished South Korean city, built on landfill dumped into the Yellow Sea at Incheon, is currently a patchwork of gleaming towers and empty plots of land. But when the 607-hectare Songdo IBD (International Business District), which forms the heart of the city, is complete in 2018, it will house about 65,000 people in what developers claim will be the greenest, most wired city in the world.
