This may seem interesting to you. There ar laws in the city which force all new "buildings", to follow an angle line that allows sun to come in down to the street no matter how high the skyscraper is. The street were getting so dark that it seemed like late-day in the streets all the time. As any architect knows sunlight gives life energy, and to think that living in the city one could possibly see only a bit of sunlight daily.
