I agree that the building are sealed my question is, are the plateforms those building are built upon flat, or are they hollow with, say 2-3 floors and commerces (though knowing the kind of activities taking place on Pav', I barely dare imagine what those must be selling!) or factories

I know I didn't draw it that way but I'd say that there are 2-3 cramped floors in the disks themselves, mostly power relays, pipes, life support and subway like tunnels leading to the core of the aerostat. The core would actually be a couple of very open levels, with buildings inside, like the dome area, but not as prestigious. And they would actually be build much like the cities of earth, to reflect nostalgia, but with each level from the top, dome area, being more and more cramped. So think of it as say 4 cities stacked upon one another, with everything from 20 story "sky scrapers" to bungalows all packed in. With only the top city getting real sunlight and a proper view. And I'd have the spire mostly solid below the first disk, which is spill over habitation, and then the bottom disk being aerostat maintenance industry space. I should really do a proper writeup for the fanzine.
