The City of the Future
The future well being of cities around the globe depends on mankind’s
ability to develop and integrate sustainable technology.
Masdar City is the city of the future; positioned at the forefront
of integrating sustainable technology into modern architectural design.
Rome, Athens, Florence; most great historical cities have had the plaza,
forum, or square at their epicenter – where the life, values, ideals,
and vision of the population evolved. Equally, the center of Masdar
must be an iconic beacon that attracts global attention to sustainable technology.
