Due to an ordinance mandating that all available land be maximized to its highest potential, Khenala Prime consists of nearly 90% skyscrapers, each of which are zoned for both commercial and residental usage. Due to this large number of high buildings, there is very little surrounding nature for citizens to enjoy.
