CULVER CITY, Calif.—An international architecture firm is envisioning a skyscraper constructed entirely of shipping containers to help alleviate overcrowding in Mumbai, India. Ganti + Associates Design, which has offices in California and India, has proposed a 100 m (330 ft) tall high-rise comprised of a series of self-supported container clusters divided by steel girders placed every eight stories. Separate apartments would each consist of three containers. Mumbai is a port city with easy availability of shipping containers.
