circular dam to be built in a shallow coastal sea bed. The three basic
functions of the dam are: a) to provide new dry land inside the dam, to

concrete foundation capable to support the load of the entire
super-structure; c) to provide an efficient anchoring structure for all
the multi-directional cables needed to support the city's infrastructure
and the new city's land.
