🏙️ Monocentric City Growth: Bid-Rent, Commuting Cost, Skyline Heights and Urban Sprawl Lab

A 3D monocentric city grows around its centre: land rent falls with distance, builders add floors where rent is high, and population fixes the city radius. Explore commuting cost, height limits and lot size, with the radius checked against closed forms and numerical integrals.
