• https://www.the-sun.com by Anthony Blair

ASTONISHING plans for a remarkable floating city with underwater streets for submarines have been unveiled.

The designs for a floating water city project off the coast of China would be if constructed, the most ambitious urban project of all time.

Plans were first released in 2015 by design agency AT Design Office, expected to be built in the Dawan District of Guangdong, Hong Kong, and Macau.

At its most basic, the city would be made up of a concrete prefabricated body 150 metres long and 30 metres wide.

Built far from the mainland, the floating city would feature a cruise port terminal for large cruise ships, a marina for small yachts, and a dock for civilian submarines.

Water and underwater highways would connect the different pods on the floating city.

AT Design Office, which has offices in England and China, was commissioned to design a floating island with an area of four square miles by Chinese construction firm CCCC-FHDI.
