2.BROOKLYN ICE CITY
New York City
Brooklyn Ice City is a visionary project born in the aftermath of a catastrophic winter leaving only 160 survivors. Shielded from bitter cold, wind, and surrounded by the thrives on renewable energy and advanced hydroponics. Automated systems and hopeful, it symbolizes a better future. Multiple iterations followed using Midjourne winter storm that decimated humanity, the frozen sea, this architectural marvel and drones assist residents. Isolated yet Midjourney (fig1-4).

Site
The city sits on the surface of ice created in Atlantic Ocean surrounding New York City where the Brooklyn Bridge was suspended. As the bridge fell apart, the city is built around the bridge, keeping the cities Brooklyn and Manhattan connected.
The land went through the coldest global climate imaginable covered with glacial ice from pole to pole. The average equatorial temperature turned to about -20°C (-10°F), roughly similar to present Antarcticae land went through the coldest global climate imaginable covered with glacial ice from pole to pole.
Level System
A level system is created to separate different functioning mechanisms separate from one another.

Survival Components
Water extraction/ Filtration System
Once the water is extracted from the frozen sea, it runs through several process of filtaration and the pure water is collected in the horizontal tank.
Co2 Filtration System
The nods collect outside air, which is filtered and stored in a big tank. CO2 is extracted and stored in 3 smaller tanks. Oxygen is obtained through electrolysis.
Weather Forecast and Communication Station
A central antenna surrounded by powerful computers sends and receives signals from satellites to gather weather and future habitable zone information.
Housing
The enclosed structure enables biological existence by utilizing solar and nuclear energy to transform the cold outside air into a habitable temperature.
Water Extraction
Underground water extraction plants obtain subsurface water through deep roots using ice heating. This enables in situ production of metals such as steel, aluminum, and magnesium.
Agriculture
Bio-genetic and chemical procedures enable soil formulation for sustainable glass agriculture, with metallic rods supporting optimal plant growth temperature.
