The story? How many times do I have to tell you? There's only one story, Lane. Metropolis. She's the story. | ||
— Perry White |
Known as "The City of Tomorrow," Metropolis is a shining example of what decades of forward-thinking city planning and investing in technology can do. A thriving city for the entire Twentieth Century, the dawn of the Twenty-First saw a city reborn. Every renovation was designed with cutting edge technology, setting a standard for living that has drawn worldwide attention and acclaim. The city is highly ecologically friendly with clean energy production and highly sustainable practices overall, while green spaces and vegetation are extensively included in the city's design. While some of the more dense areas still have the feel of an urban jungle, though now a futuristic one, Metropolis is much better integrated with the natural world than most cities even a fraction of its size.
