Floating City Would Circle Globe

A Florida-based firm has designed a floating city called Freedom Ship that would spend its entire time at sea. The vessel is a mile long, 25-stories high and has enough room for 50,000 permanent residents. It features schools, hospitals, art galleries, shops, parks, an aquarium, casino and even an art gallery as well as an airport on the roof and a docking bay at the rear. "The Freedom Ship will be the largest vessel ever built, and the first ever floating city," said project creator Roger Gooch, who hopes to raise the estimated $9.8 billion necessary to make it a reality.
