China is planning to build the tallest skyscraper in the world in just 90 days. If everything goes according to plan, a 2,749 foot skyscraper will be hanging out with the clouds by the end of March. The skyscraper, dubbed “Sky City One,” will contain businesses as well as apartments.

Architecture of Density
Seven million people are sardine-canned into a mere 1,108 square kilometers of Hong Kong, comprised of 6,588 high rise buildings (several hundred more than in New York City). Hong Kong’s metoric development and population explosion produced these head-spinningly claustrophobic living conditions, photographed here by Michael Wolf. In each picture it’s hard to imagine that anything else exists besides these massive walls, it seems as if the architecture itself has somehow overtaken the world it springs from.
