Towers of the Post-Apocalypse

overpopulated tower home during the apocalypse

Tower homes became popular with the proliferation of macro biological weapons, such as spike wolves and virus zombies, which made dwelling at ground level hazardous. Initial zombie infection waves scaled exponentially, resulting in highly over crowded tower tops. 

But their real estate evaluations went up, along with property taxes. Cell reception was also excellent, at least in regions where it was powered by hydrodams.

Towers used drones and robot retrieval systems were used for sourcing supplies, and when these were not available, the most agile and disposable inhabitants were.

Eventually, walls were constructed, and cities, now vastly depopulated, became warrens of walled off enclaves, fighting over hydroponic pods and the automated food factories.
