A Skyscraper that Spins

Over in Dubai, they are building a skyscraper where each floor rotates on it’s own. They use the spinning motion to power the building (and they even have some energy left over!). Even though it takes between 1 and 3 hours for an apartment to make a complete rotation, I think I would still get motion sick. I guess what would make me sicker is that they are charging $3.7m to $36m for a 1,378 sq ft apartment!.
