	The urban-ecological grid of Universal City is the shape of a galaxy with five spiraling galactic arms. It provides for five large, unspoiled, natural, green areas to reach into the center of the city. Altitude: 15,000 ft.
	Our first stop is Borealis, population: 50,000, the circular shaped cluster community in the outer left spiral galactic arm. Borealis starts in the year 2003 as a World Celebration to the New Millennium, and the first village of Universal City. Altitude: 3,000 ft.
	Energy Self-sufficient, Cluster Communities with the Architectural Themes of all Cultures of the Earth are visible as we approach Borealis. We no longer think in terms of square blocks and straight lines. Urban density increases towards the center of the city. Altitude: 1,500 ft.
	Borealis Village - Stage I - Experimental Urban Module [University Research Centre]: population 5,000 people. Area: 40 acres. Built almost entirely of recycled materials from Old Age Cities we set the Template for Future Growth. The curved lines are continuous pedestrian malls. Altitude: 800 ft.
	Landing at Borealis Village. The domed building in the upper right is a Winter Gardens Sports and Leisure Facility. The village has a complete cross-section of city amenities. Altitude: 500 ft. [Link to an Article about Borealis Village]
	Roof-top view in Borealis Village nestled in the Boreal Forest of Western Alberta. Pedestrian Malls are covered with automatic retractable roofs. The yellow and red tower is a solar power crystal. [Link to an Article about Borealis Village]

	Prefabricated Living Modules manufactured mostly of recycled plastics and foamed concrete. Robots will do most of the construction work. Using solar energy architecture, all residential units will enjoy south-facing balconies.
	The City will have one transportation system: Elevated Personal Rapid Transit (PRT). The ground will be exclusively devoted to people, the air will contain the PRT: 1 to 6 passenger accident-free monorail vehicles that silently whisk at speeds of up to 60 mph over electromagnetic force fields.
	Universal City's domed downtown mega structure is the three-dimensional heart of the city. The ½ mile diameter retractable dome provides a climate controlled garden core area: the integration of space-age technologies. Altitude: 3,000 ft. [Link to History of the U.C. Educational Program]
	The City as an Urban Ecology will not force the natural biodiversity beyond its ability to absorb new development. Our watershed will not become polluted. Our air will remain pure. Everything will remain in a Total Recycling System.
