Your magnificent city, father - and you the brain of this city - and all of us in the city's light... And where are the people, father, whose hands built your city?

But the hands that built the tower of Babel knew nothing of the dream of the brain that had conceived it. One man's hymns of praise became other men's curses.

‘Fritz Lang’s production designers—Erich Kettelhut, Otto Hunte and Kurt Vollbrecht—shaped the fictional city of Metropolis by re-imagining contemporary Manhattan. [T]hey spliced the city with buildings inspired by avant-garde European architects—among them, Cubist architects from the Bauhaus School; expressionists, like Erich Mendelsohn; Le Corbusier, with his vision of high-rise cities; and … the Italian Futurist Antonio Sant'Elia, whose “Città Nuova,” presented his future city as a multi-level megastructure shot through with daring interconnecting bridges and vertiginous aerial walkways.’ (CNN)
