I wonder the level of unmet sociological expectations of the inhabitants. They will be required to be part of a floating crew of sorts. I doubt there will be as much freedom aboard as it appears. Except for primarily utilitarian use, the marinas will be superfluous unless there is an oligarchy of privileged leadership who will be able to make use of them for their leisure. Except that maybe only the wealthiest could afford to live aboard them depending on if they are private endeavors or run by land-based governments who have natural resources elsewhere to support the material needs (replacement parts, for example, or fuel for various watercraft and powerplants for the facility). The airspace doesn't seem large enough to take in enough sunlight for the layers of agricultural, power and health requirements for all on board. So, nice concept, but I'm skeptical of its self-sustaining viability and ultimate desirability. Most would find it more economical and desirable to head for the hills if the oceans swelled like some say they will. Very resort-ish.

I can see it happening way in the future, as they are just little islands... but the cost for energy will be high and expensive and growing communities are going to need necessities like grocery stores, fuel, etc. It's a really awesome idea though. I'm sure they are making it better. Not sure how popular these will be.
