EXPLORE THE COMMUNITY
LIVING SPACES
In order to accommodate a wide variety of lifestyle and family needs, G.T.E.C. will provide multiple housing options. Traditional family dwellings will be available, including detached, single-family houses, townhomes, and apartments. Emerging generations may find the available co-housing units appealing.
G.T.E.C. will feature a “House Farm”, where homes are 3D printed within a twenty-four hour period. This will not only allow for fast, efficient home building, but will also serve as a unique attraction for visitors.
ECOLOGY & INFRASTUCTURE
At G.T.E.C., we will use state-of-the-art, sustainable farming practices that have a low impact on the environment while maximizing space within the community and yielding nutrient-rich foods. Our vertical farms will grow produce, while our laboratories grow Cell-Cultured Meat.
G.T.E.C.’s community infrastructure will exceed LEED community standards, including solar roofing and farms, next-generation energy storage, advanced waste removal and waste treatment systems. We are concerned not only about the sustainability of our community itself, but its impact on the outside environment, too.
CIRCULATION & TRANSPORTATION
Our fast, comfortable, and incredibly safe transportation system will be equipped with PRT Pod Cars to transport you to your destinations around the community. Quiet and energy efficient, with zero carbon emissions, PRT Pod Cars are perfectly aligned with G.T.E.C.’s sustainable mission. Travel from your home to the Communicore to pick up groceries from our cashier-less grocery store, then get your groceries home without a fuss–all with our community transit system.
For residents and visitors, an underground parking garage will be made available. A fleet of community-owned electric vehicles will be available to community members who do not own a car, in addition to significant discounts with rideshare partners.
MAIN STREET
Inspired by Mediterranean villages and lush, urban grottos, G.T.E.C.’s Main Street runs parallel to the elevated PRT Pod Car track, which takes visitors on a meandering, automated tour of the community that ends at the final reveal: the bustling Communicore. Main Street runs first around the outer loop, then inward. It’s arranged on a scale similar to compact, European hill towns and villages, curving around G.T.E.C. rather than serving as a straight thoroughfare to give the visitor a constant sense of discovery on their way to the city center.
TREE OF LIFE
G.T.E.C.’s Tree of Life in the heart of the city center, the Communicore, is a wonder to gaze on and a pleasure to visit. Its visitors center will welcome and direct visitors to G.T.E.C., giving them all the information they need to enjoy their experience to the fullest. The Tree of Life will also house a luxurious dining experience and lounge, in addition to an observation deck where visitors and residents can enjoy an unparalleled view of the city proper.
VISITOR COMPLEX
In order to accommodate a wide variety of lifestyle and family needs, G.T.E.C. will provide multiple housing options. Traditional family dwellings will be available, including detached, single-family houses, townhomes, and apartments. Emerging generations may find the available co-housing units appealing.
The Visitor Complex, housed within the Tree of Life in G.T.E.C.’s Communicore city center, will welcome and educate guests on the evolution of civilization and technology. Additionally, visitors will learn G.T.E.C.’s history, goals, and purpose.
Within the Visitor Complex, holographic and virtual reality exhibits will awaken you to a greater understanding of humankind’s potential. A brief IMAX film will inspire you to dream beyond today and embrace the possibilities of a bright future. Then, the IMAX screen will open wide, revealing itself as a doorway into the wonders of G.T.E.C. and welcoming you to the future.
PARKING
For non-resident guests and residents who own a vehicle, an underground parking deck will be made available. This will not only maximize the available space, but will also maintain the community’s aesthetic.
G.T.E.C. will feature a “House Farm”, where homes are 3D printed within a twenty-four hour period. This will not only allow for fast, efficient home building, but will also serve as a unique attraction for visitors.
COMMERCIAL AREAS
In addition to residential, dining, and shopping areas, G.T.E.C. will feature a number of commercial areas available to visitors and residents.
HOTEL & CONFERENCE CENTER
G.T.E.C. will host a large hotel and conference center to attract visitors from around the world. We want people from all walks of life to experience the community firsthand. In addition to comfortable accommodations and dining, the hotel at G.T.E.C. will house a luxurious spa for a relaxing day of self-care.
WATERPARK
A technologically advanced water park will provide a fun and active vacation experience for the entire family. Using Hololens technologies embedded in swimming goggles, you will find yourself swimming next to bottle-nosed dolphins and humpback whales without ever leaving the comfort of your pool.
FARMER’S MARKET
At G.T.E.C., we will focus on cultivating the agricultural practices–and food–of the future. Our Farmers Market will feature vegetables and fruits grown in our high-tech vertical gardens. Don’t just see it for yourself…taste it, too!
COMMUNICORE

AGORA (RETAIL/DINING)
Agora is the retail and dining center of Communicore. Here, you’ll find a pleasing, multi-sensory environment where you can shop and dine with ease. Attend a holographic performance in the concert hall, followed by a rich cup of coffee at our robot-operated coffee shop. Enjoy fine dining with futuristic flair, or pick up ingredients for your own meal at our cashierless grocery store.
INTERFAITH PAVILION
For those seeking a spiritual connection, G.T.E.C.’s Interfaith Center will host the activities of various religious traditions. Through the use of projection mapping technologies, the interior appearance of the hall will completely change for each religious experience, depending on the religious community occupying the space at any given time. This is G.T.E.C.’s vision for building bridges between residents and communities, while simultaneously satisfying their diverse spiritual needs.
AMPHITHEATRE
Communicore’s amphitheatre will be an active venue featuring a variety of guest lecturers and teachers discussing a wide range of topics and subject matter. You will be able to hear an expert educator speak every day of the week, if you wish.
