First, ground floor of all sky srcapers should be totally empty. Not even parking. This will help free flow of air. Parking should be on upper floors.
Second, carry as much traffic as possible on flyover and above ground metros/monorails. All flyovers in downtown area should put in sound proof enclosure.
This will make city center quieter and with very small amount of visible traffic. Secondly it will be lot efficient to scrubb out CO2 from air within enclosed flyovers.
So, people walking on ground there is nothing much to see at eye-level except pillers of tall buildings.

We'd be hobbits except for the ingrained habit of building cities on waterways, thus being limited mostly to aboveground structures. |

Anyways, the Idea would provide a much more potent wind-tunnel than even current layouts. |

//much more potent wind-tunnel// Yes. I used to
work in a building with no first floor (it had about
10
floors above ground, and several levels of sub-
basements* but on street level, nothing but pillars
and a small elevator vestibule. In winter, the
wind,
when you walked past, was terrible. |

On the other hand, perhaps one could install
ground-level wind tubines and harvest the power. |

*some with lovely views, but that's another story. |
