Everyone must or should realize it's only a niche market for the ultra wealthy at the moment. Not saying it's bad, but unless you can make them more affordable sometime soon, or unless anyone out there becomes a billionaire all of a sudden (allow us to be somewhat skeptical about that), demand for this kind of products is likely to decrease at some point locally. I mean, Manhattan proper got a big share of it lately.

That said, I don't think this market would ever literally collapse either. This standard of living within a city center is too desirable to fail on the long run.

I would hardly call this a "billiinaire" tower.
