Mexico city Earth Scraper:<\/b>We have seen\u00a0 many skyscrapers which look like they are about to touch the sky. Earth scraper is opposite to that, going very deep into the earth.<\/p>\n

An architecture firm in Mexico City, BNKR Arquitectura, is working on\u00a0 the idea of building an inverted pyramid in Mexico City\u2019s 190,000 ft.\u00b2 ( 17,652 m\u00b2) historic main public square and center, Zocalo. Around this square are some of Mexico City\u2019s most well-known monuments: the Cathedral, the National Palace, and the City Government buildings.<\/p>\n

The idea for \u201cEarthscrapers\u201d came about when architects were seeking to increase the space available in this historic square. The only way to do it and meet stringent building and preservation criteria and preserve was to build an underground structure.<\/p>\n

BNKR architects chose the inverted pyramid due its ability to maintain structural integrity. The Earthscraper will descend nearly 1,000 feet (304m) below the surface and potentially house up to 100,000 people.<\/p>\n

The Earthscraper is considered an innovation in architecture, but it is not without its skeptics. The concept has merits in trying to deal with large city issues like population growth, limiting urban sprawl and maintaining open spaces. But because the idea is so new, there are no laws or guidelines for building downward in a city area and unforeseen problems could arise that could jeopardize the surrounding historic buildings.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
