Cloud City News: This floating construct's underbelly now serves as Inisfree's moon.

Cloud City
Note:
This is the mile-diameter spherical neighborhood which orbits the Avalanche Ring Wall construct on the slopes of Mount Olympus (Inisfree's largest mountain, which the whole city is radially arranged around) below.
Dimensions & Layout:
Like Inisfree, this construct has a mostly solid lower hemisphere, and a mostly open-air upper hemisphere. Also like Inisfree, large Repulsines built into its lower hemisphere allow it to hover and maneuver silently, and generate the energy field which is helped to remain in a dome over its open-air upper half by how it is attracted to the outside surface area of its lower half. As stated before, it is essentially a sphere with a diameter of one mile. Its 'ground level' is exactly two miles above the Avalanche Wall, while its lowest point (the center of the outside surface of its lower hemisphere) is exactly 1.5 miles above that same wall. Suites and hangars (to receive incoming, small (personal-sized) air-and-Spacecraft) are throughout its otherwise solid lower hemisphere. On its surface ('ground level' a.k.a. 'topside') there is a ring of the G.A.H., with G.A.H. subway tracks running parallel just below it. Observation balconies, terraces, and full-sized lawns are arranged between the outside edge of that G.A.H. ring and the ledge at the end of this circular topside area, where many Inisfreeans and guests enjoy starting their skydiving, hang-gliding, and para-sailing. There are also many Caribbean-colored ponds in this area of Cloud City which are encircled and bedded with white and beige sand. Inside the G.A.H. ring, there is an open space on all sides leading inward toward the base of Cloud City's central and tallest spire; a skyscraper standing half a mile tall up from this plane. About half way up this spire, there is a group of hovering buildings, as well as some small clouds that are formed by the natural reaction of nearby water vapor with the energy fields generated by their own Repulsines.
Special Features:
One of Inisfree's four Congresses; the Global one for Earth, meets here (in the main chamber in the base of the central spire).
