Obviously in a city where living space is at a premium it looks like "dying space" is too. Only way to stand out is to go tall!

Nothing unusual. There is a immortal villain inside that building on the right. He has a machine, that accumulates the souls of the people inside the other building... These souls will allow him to stay immortal for another century.
