Hello /tg/,

I need a very specific type of image for an upcoming RPG I'll be playing in. I'm looking for images that show roads being incorporated into skyscrapers. I'm pretty sure I've seen 50s futurism drawings showing highways incorporated into heavily urbanized landscapes. If anyone has anything helpful I would be greatly appreciated and I'll be posting pics as a thanks.

When I was a kid I had a really cool book about this. It had a diagram of what a future city might look like, with roads spiralling vertically around massive skyscrapers.

I guess you can try googling "arcology" but the designs seem weirdly specific now.

Oh also I recommend you check out the short story Riders of the Purple Wage, and this website:

The guy is having hosting troubles but the pages and images still load on archive.org.

I like the implication that we'd build in exactly the same style forever except increasingly huge and ornate.

Maybe we'll go back to old designs in the future.

OP here. I found an art installation which is kind of like what I am looking for. It needs more roads going through buildings though.
Here's a picture and video of it for the interested.

A friend of mine actually lived there. That was 20 years ago. Man, I feel old.

It was a big feature of Futurist architectural art.
