The First BSRM National Seminar on Tall Buildings was held in Dhaka, Bangladesh on September 1, 2012. This seminar was an independent endeavor to solve the similar-natured problems of Bangladesh and it was unrelated with the activities of the Council of Tall buildings and Urban Habitat (CTBUH), Lehigh University, USA. It seems quite encouraging to know that a country like Bangladesh has taken up independent program for finding out the appropriate type of buildings in the overall contexts of the country. At this juncture it was obvious that the definition of Tall Building given by CTBUH was not followed in the above seminar. It is well-known that the philosophy of Tall building is “accommodation of more people on less land”. Still however, the deciding factor is the number of people per unit area. If this number increases due to tall buildings, then the planning of the city fails. In the western countries, in the existing cities, residential tall buildings are constructed for accommodating bachelors or small families requiring no or less number of private vehicles. The reason behind is, even though many vehicles can be accommodated in the multi-level parking floors, their entry and exit at the pick hour create severe congestion. After accommodating the car-less persons or families in the tall buildings in the downtown, those using cars are accommodated in low-rise buildings far away from the city centre. In order to eradicate the above type of congestion in the tall prestigious buildings, cars are discouraged for valid reasons and people are carried by surface or underground trains, public bus etc. Due to the disregard of these basic principles of planning, Dhaka city is showing ever increasing vehicular congestion. The aim and objective of this article is to find out if the philosophy of tall building, i.e. ‘Accommodating more people on less land’ can be applied in the rural areas of Bangladesh. In this country each and every square feet of land is fertile and productive. The growth of population and the requirement of vast land for their habitation are constantly decreasing the quantity of valuable land. In this age creation of land in mass scale is considered as an impossible proposition. Land may be created by filling water bodies. In our country however, water bodies are important source of fish. Also the cost of filling turns so high that such land need to be used for specialized purposes only.
