The Shimizu TRY 2004 Mega-City Pyramid is a proposed project for construction of a massive pyramid over Tokyo Bay in Japan . The structure would be about 14 times higher than the Great Pyramid at Giza , and would house 750,000 people. The structure would be 730 meters above mean sea level , including 5 stacked trusses , each with similar dimensions to that of the great pyramid of Giza.
