As their populations grow, future cities will need to house, feed, and transport millions more people. To solve these problems, cities might float on rising seas, grow crops in skyscrapers, and move travelers with flying drones. Catch a glimpse of the technology we might see in future cities, from self-cleaning streets to stores run by robots.
