The Earthscraper


The Earthscraper is an architectural proposal for a massive inverted pyramid that would be built beneath Mexico City's Zocalo square and would extend 65 stories underground. The Earthscraper is a design by Bunker Arquitectura, a Mexico-City based architecture, urbanism and research office.

Good place for future cartel shootouts or beheadings.

I thought Mexico was a poor-and-drug-ridden country?

As Mexico City is built on a former lake, and therefore has unstable ground, it's hard to imagine that this project would be at all safe.

I really can't see how this would be safe as Mexico City has a history of severe earthquakes!
