We imagine one would have to have some serious cash on hand and a love for the high seas to consider taking a cruise on "The Freedom Ship." This mile long, 25-story high floating city is looking to raise $10 billion so 50,000 people can live in a city completely at sea.
According to the Florida-based company, this ship would be designed to sail constantly, never having to dock, and also has an airport, schools, ballfields, and even an aquarium (in the ocean?) Here's what Roger M Gooch, director and vice-president of Freedom Ship International had to say about the project:
"The Freedom Ship will be the largest vessel ever built, and the first ever floating city,"
"This will be a very heavily capitalised project and the global economy in the last few years hasn't been too inviting for unproven progressive projects like ours."
