The airship looks like it's out of Final Fantasy.
And moving back in time...
San Francisco, 1906 (7000x2748px)
Skeptical about what? Think somebody photoshopped a broken and scorched San Fran?Thats a very large and extremely well detailed picture considering it was taken in 1906. I'm skeptical but it's still an amazing picture.

Picture is real, awesome airship is not though. Look up "San Francisco In Ruins"
Damn, some crazy nice pictures. I love that bridge, I so want to go there.
If you like bridges, Multnomah Falls is just a bit closer than Buxian Bridge. Not quite the same, but still very cool. The view from the top is a bit disappointing, though.Damn, some crazy nice pictures. I love that bridge, I so want to go there.
This is what confused me last time. I see a great big highway moving through this picture. But I see no roads at all in between these buildings. They appear randomly plotted in the dirt with no infrastructure around them. In New York, Chicago, and just about any other city with big buildings we have the building, a sidewalk, and then the street. Sometimes big buildings are their own block.Dubai
Looks to me there is a reasonably large walkway above the highway if you want to cross it.
Nope thats a railway in construction.
As for the road, there are occasionally places to turn off onto long slip roads which then branch off onto other roads and shops . The sheikh zayed road is more like a motorway that happents to run right through the centre, if there were small roads branching on and off it I think it would be dangerous and slow traffic.
This is what confused me last time.
No. Because all the buildings & attractions you see are either of the prince's decision or another company basically being given the right to build anywhere they want, the roads then have to pretty much built out to that location. The city has been criticized before for not being well developed, grid-wise, and hides some nasty locations for the poor.And how the heck are you supposed to cross that highway? I see no under or overpass or intersection. Is this city designed for people to walk through tunnels from building to building? Has this city even been designed at all?
Now lets think about it for a sec, man made islands that look like palm trees and a map of the world, an indoor ski slope in a place thats 120 degrees outside. The worlds largest mall and tallest building built in a barren wasteland of a place. What in Dubai actually makes sense?
