I'm not scientifically minded but the way I see it. Future cities will consist of Judge Dredd (we need police and judges like him over here in Britain. Any other British forumites agree?) style arcopolpsises, possibly linked together by bridges.

The thing about Judge Dredd is that it is tongue-in-cheek satire for the most part.

future-noir is fun but why not gradual desertion of the cities as in City by Clifford Simak (and bits of Detroit)? Or something fantastic like Diaspar in Arthur Clarke's the City and the Stars.

There are many different future visions of cities, not all dystopic.

If anything I would think cities would be policed by cyborgs like Robocop before Dredd.

However, I do think that large high rises will be easily obtainable and required in the future.
