cities seem to be squeezing in more people. All of the world’s 73 residential towers over 250 metres high were built after the year 2000. Another 64 are under construction. On 57th Street in New York, a building whereused to have an office has been knocked down and replaced by an 82-storey glass splinter. When finished, it will be just 8 metres shorter than the Empire State Building.

Moreover, because people are living longer and having fewer children, a growing proportion of households contain only one or two people.
