Deep: The 65-storey
'earth-scraper' is set to plunge 300m into the ground beneath
Mexico City

Landmark: The earth-scraper
would be located in the city's main square, and topped with an
enormous Mexican flag

Scary: The core
is all made of glass to ensure that all parts of the building
receive natural sunlight from the world outside

Epic scale: The
enormous complex is intended to get round the city's planning laws,
which state that buildings can be no more than eight storeys
high

Relaxing:
Designers expect the public areas of the building to become a
popular destination for those wishing to escape the bustle of the
city

Heritage: The
earth-scraper is expected to contain a museum and cultural centre
which will explore the history of Mexico and its
pyramids

Unobtrusive:
One advantage of the unusual structure is that it would create
space in the centre of Mexico City, which is full of historic
buildings which cannot be demolished

Green: The
interior of the building is supposed to look natural and
welcoming

Efficient: The
creative use of space would allow the plaza to be used for events
such as concerts and military parades

Massive: The
space covering the earth-scraper will take up 240 square metres in
the heart of Mexico's capital

Modern: Much of
the building is expected to be devoted to office space

Shopping: The
earth-scraper would almost certainly become one of the city's top
retail destinations as soon as it opened

Connected: This
picture shows the proposed metro station which would pass through
the earth-scraper just below ground level

Novelty: No
other public building extends so far beneath the
ground

Technical: The
building would be an extraordinary feat of engineering

Today: The
plaza, shown as it looks currently, would be transformed by the
radical plan
