To make the most efficient "space" (not necessary skyscraper and btw no current cities are self sustainable, it require food grown from rural areas) is by making everything you need, want and desire in close proximity to where you live, like Hong Kong where cars is a hindrance. It cannot be claimed to be a city IF it doesn't have it own emergency services (hospital, police, fire) and most importantly a real city is the one that could "morph" into it own shape over time and not "designated", because you cannot forge a long lasting character IF there are hundreds of these.
Since it called "self sustainable" vertical city, don't let inhabitant come out for the entire year once this building is fully occupied, then I will be impress.
I like thinking out of the box like shown in this video. I would love to see a country actually build a city from the ground up using this concept with open spaces between these buildings. Have the integrated public transportation made in such a way that people would actually want to use it (there are many ideas on how this can be done).
