The Freedom Ship project is a serious step up from ResidenSea but also unbuilt as of yet, though 1/5 of the on-board living units have already been sold. The concept? A mile-long, energy self-sufficient floating city with absolutely everything included from parks and playgrounds to apartments, businesses, schools, casinos and shopping malls. It will also be fully networked for phone and internet communications.
For a more realistic plan for CaMaNaVa im thinking of ala-Floating Market like in Thailand
From this (Navotas/Malabon)
To this (Bangkok)

I have been to the floating market and someone told me that it was a flood zone area. The residents made it sustainable by turning their flooded community into a market and a tourist spot.
This are some ideas for the Neo-Urban Plan project and hope you can share some plans too!
