Welcome to MTS
The most eco friendly city in the world
Welcome
Welcome to Metropolis, the capital of the DC Universe and the capital of Eco-friendly architecture. As the leader of the Green City Revolution (GCC), we must set an example and set new standards for the modern "green" city. Also we are the only city in the world to have a 100%, fully functional green city. We are always improving and maintaining our "green" infrastructure.
Our Solar farm
Our solar farms are located in 24 different areas. These areas in the city receive the most sunlight. About 25% of our electricity comes from solar energy.
Our Hydro farm
We are lucky to have three major rivers within our city's boundaries. We have a dam in two sections of each river which equals six dams in total capable of producing the required amount of energy. These dams were also our city's first source of green energy.
And our wind farm
Metropolis is a coastal city and coastal cities usually huge gusts of wind blowing all the time. To achieve our goal of being a 100% green city, we decided to build a wind farm. Starting off with 13 windmills to over 500, the wind farm now spans across land and sea
Land Uses
Instututional
Metropolis is a huge city with lots of children. That's why we have 20% of our land dedicated for institutional purposes. All the infrastructure is eco-friendly and student friendly.
Transportational
Our city's major transportation routes consists only of two highways, one railroad and a few runways for our airport. This adds up to 5% of land used for transportation including the inner roads. We believe that it's better to walk to places since everything needed to access is nearby.
Commercial
We have lots of businesses and big name brands in Metropolis. This gives every citizen a job opportunity. Some shops are quite isolated from other while rest are in huge shopping complexes or malls around the city making it very accessible. These malls are growing fast but the total land used by these buildings right now is 10%
Industrial
Since Metropolis is a green city, we try to avoid factories and industrial buildings. But we must keep necessary factories such as food processing plants. Due to the scarcity of factories etc, only 3% of land is used for industrial purposes.
Open space
Metropolis loves green, open spaces. That's why we kept 17% percent of our land for parks, fields, woodlots and forests. Many of these parks for public use. They can rented for events and festivals.
Residential
At last we have residential land use. 25% of the land is occupied by high rise buildings and skyscrapers. Metropolis encourages citizens to live in high rise buildings to reduce wasted land and also for their social lives. We understand that many would like to live in their own detached home, so that's why the rest 15% of land is kept away for those who like to live in the suburbs.
