Let's think about the following questions:
A. What're your chances to be in contact with some natural matter or material while living permanently in a skyscraper?
B. What're your chances to continue sleeping while belfry's bells sound loud around?
C. What's your urban view from the top of a belfry, what kind of feeling is generated by the offered view?
C. How do you feel when living in permanence on the last floor of a skyscraper? Could you hear bells up there?
The belfry is a noisy traditional religious stuff? You think so? And what if the noisiest and offensive structure is the skyscraper? Noisy because it covers with its volume all other volumes around and dominates all attempts to formate a community or society "out of the box". This is the annoying noise, it sounds loud between your ears without being audible outside. This noise is produced by the architectural imposing impression, and its devastating effect on the judgment ability of the average human is mirrored on the behaving of the inhabitants...
By the other hand, there is more place for growth vertically rather than horizontally. It is a fact that economic miracles are built once for pointing the future. What everybody sees is his/her interpretation of the proposed future. If skyscrapers contribute to the collective good and growth then people will adopt the skyscraper lifestyle. If this contribution is a real fact and not one more social illusion based on the human need of a strong imaginary for maintaining the collective emotional balance, there will be huge cities, immense urban areas, full of resplendent skyscrapers hosting millions of happy citizens.
And what about the belfry? It will survive in the future? A fusion could it be possible? That means the construction of a belfry-skyscraper! Which suppose a church-skyscraper but in some more futuristic architectural design the belfry and the church could be built in a unique set of two in one, following the rules of the dominant marketing directives. It could be a great success and also proof of an efficient multilevel marketing strategy.
I want to notice here that I'm a fan of skyscrapers architecture and engineering. These structures are amazing despite the negative effects that might reserve for a part of humans more sensible to the urbanized environment. Of course, I am, above all, also a fan of the belfry, but I think that living in a belfry is not a piece of cake even if you have an internet connection and a good headset!
There is no photo of a skyscraper, just because I don't have any photo of a skyscraper in my collections. I hope you don't mind!
