Kyle City

Kyle City is a metropolis comprised of Kyle of Lochalsh and Kyleakin in northwestern Scotland. It also houses the arcologies in those regions, Arcolochalsh and Arcoakin, and extends all the way past Plockton, which is now one of its suburbs. 
Kyle has a population of about two million, with about half of them living in the two arcologies. The city had only progressed to about 10,000 in 2180, but boomed once the Isle of Skye lost its environmental protection and became a massive open resource zone. By 2200, the population was passing 1.5 million. 
The Highland Spring Tower and Skye Needle are the City's tallest buildings amid over 50 skyscrapers, with the latter topping out at 232 floors. The Spring Tower is 236 floors, but is shorter as it's located in the loch itself. 
Kyle is home to the MacRae and Fraser families.
Kyle City had a bridge called the Skye Bridge running over the loch connecting Kyle of Lochalsh with Kyleakin, but it was demolished on January 3rd, 2230 as any vehicle that could make it to the loch could also fly over it.
== Behind the Scenes ==
Kyle of Lochalsh and Kyleakin, as of 2015, have a combined population of under one thousand. They're both serene little villages as far from a giant metropolis as can be imagined, and the notion of arcologies of this scale and other skyscrapers being built on their hills is almost unthinkable.
