unixronin: (Say what?)

So, it seems the History Channel held a "City of the Future" contest, challenging eight architectural firms to show their visions of the San Francisco of 2108.  C|Net has a pictorial.

I can't remember the last time I saw such pretentious pie-in-the-sky "and then magic happens" bullshit posing as architectural design.  I think the winning design firm thought they were supposed to be submitting concepts for an SF movie set in the San Francisco of 3108 AD.  It'd sure make me think twice about hiring them to design anything for me.
