The Imaginary City. This is a global type of city. The Virtual Real City or Citynet. This looks like the real thing. It is mostly for local people and can do most of the same things you can do in the real city.
Many elements are service and business oriented.
However , one element is globally-oriented for people who live elsewhere but want to visit. Architects have an important role in creating these cities since virtual cities need a master plan and buildings need professional design. The project is being funded and made possible by the telephone company. The Helsinki Arena 2000 project is designed to get as many things happening in the virtual city as happen in the real city. Universities, community services, shops and businesses, theaters and public meetings will all be accessible.
