>not one of you posting Ringworld
What the fuck
I thought of it, but it seemed like the OP wanted buildings.
The idea of a ring world is one my top 3 favorite SciFi concepts.
If we are including mega structures, have an impractical open ended colony cylinder
megastructures are fucking awesome
Here, have a Rama.
At the right rotation speed and radius an open ended cylinder would work. The atmosphere is affected by the artificial gravity too and you potentially would only need a relatively short wall at the end too stop it falling off the egde.

Can it still be called mini-golf?

The books in the Omale series are maybe the best sci-fi i've read. A shame that it's not translated outside of french.
The world is basically a dyson sphere with the people living on the inside surface of the sphere. (There's a particle film in the atmosphere that saturates and creates an artificial day/night cycle so that the people don't cook off on the inner surface)
To give an idea of the sphere's diameter, if we do the conversion with the in-book fictionnal measuring units, it would be about twice the distance between the earth and the sun.
Where does gravity come from?
Rotation maybe? Centrifugal force is a pretty neat thing.
The sphere is rotating around the star inside. Only about a quarter of the inside surface is hospitable and it's concentrated around the equator

Ouch
Wow, I'm going to need some aloe for that sick burn.
