These are also really skinny and not slabs so say on average we have 8 two-bed apartments per floor and an average of 80 residential floors (remember, average total floors is higher). For 10 towers we then have a maximum population of 12800 people. Not a lot is it?
Yikes, 12,800 people? Not a lot in terms of the a whole city, but where on Earth do you have over 10,000 people in such a small area? This is much less than 1 square Kilometer of space here.
