In a potential future, Manhattan will embrace a neo-level of urbanization process. Lots of skyscrapers with glorious memories will be replaced by New Super-Skyscrapers which has much higher FAR and density. Rather than demolishing the former skyscrapers, we believe centralized preserving these skyscrapers full of delirious memory would be approved as meaningful as protecting Pantheon in Rome. It is a kind of retroactive represent for the forgotten lifestyle and collective unconsciousness. Skyscrapers in project will be still in use and be beheld by people, just like the Central Park.

When people walk into the museum tower of Manhattan skyscrapers the entrance ramp will lead people to each skyscrapers foundation. We believe that skyscrapers should be considered as the antiquities artwork which could view from bottle. After viewing the foundation, office workers will get into each tower to start their work and tourists will take the Annulus Lifting Platform to the top sightseeing plaza where tourists can enjoy the top view of skyscrapers and central park.
