The greatest achievement of waterfront developments is the way they have turned the attention of urban dwellers towards the sea and created a scenic balance between ocean and city. However, such developments up to this day have hardly been undertaken with a true understanding of the environmental features of the shoreline and leave us in much anticipation of a new development phase (water front developments for the next generation). Meanwhile, although Mega-Float has the potential to create new coastal scenery for urban centers, its path to actual implementation will be strictly limited if it is merely characterized as alternative space to land.
