Dorking Out has a proposal to rebuild New Orleans as a floating mega city. A little tongue-in-cheek, but still thought-provoking.
Advantages to floating megacity- Now flood-proof, this won't happen again in 25 year intervals
- Becomes a port city, handles more importing/exporting
- Practice for future waterworld cities after ice caps melt
- Riverboat gambling laws apply to entire city!
- Take that Japan! We get the future city first.
