      Very interesting! I think the big buildings and big transport systems will stick, smaller buildings would have to make way for bigger ones so that our booming population has space to live.
      I think cars will disappear soon 😉

      I hope that some of our most iconic buildings will still be here just as we have the pleasure of buildings from hundreds of years ago (castes, cathedrals etc). They will allow future generations to understand our history.

      Unlike Roma, I don’t think cars will disappear but they will change. There are already super cool electric cars and Google has engineered driverless cars. Whatever happens, there will be a lot of change!!

      I too think historic buildings will stay around, we’re getting very good at preserving them!
      Travel wise I think that we’ll still have cars, or personal vehicles but hopefully they’ll be a bit greener than currently!
      I think new structures will be more sustainable and able to provide their own energy – fingers crossed!

      I think all the major infrastructure will stay , roads, water pipes, electricity network, rail networks.. these were all built to last and although they will need some work and investment they will stay

      With a bit of luck the water mains and sewers! We are still using Victorain made water pipes and sewers so I’d like to think our modern day replacements will last as long!
