}}Arcology, the fusion of architecture and ecology, is a signature structure of the [[SimCity]] series. In the current iteration, Arcology functions as a gigantic futuristic apartment building. This structure supplies all the [[cities]] in the [[region]] with an endless supply of workers, shoppers and students. These Sims come to your city for their commercial, industrial and [[Education|educational]] needs. *Arcology fills the need for residential buildings. With Arcology in place, players can create cities without residential [[zones]]. *Arcology is unlocked by having 58,000 or more residents in a city in your region. Arcology is one of the [[Great Works]]. [[File:arcology phases.jpg|500px|thumb|left|Phases of Arcology construction]] {{Great Works}}
