The future is here for the citizens of ^C1, and it seems to be shaped like a titanic mechanical preying mantis. Or somewhat like a colossal upended aquarium with a nice sound system. Or you might liken it to a Brobdingnagian treehouse for all your friends (and their friends) to play in.

Whatever they are, they are called "arcologies," and they are huge cities within our cities, and proof that ^C1 has truly grown up. "Can't say as if I like 'em," said Rufus T. Firefly. "They put me in mind of my uncle Cedric, that skinny old varmint with the sour temper," he added.
