Purpose: to transport goods from surface to orbit at much greater efficiency. In terms of game play there would need to be a fuel cost associated with bringing freight ships to orbit that would be dramatically reduced by use of a space elevator. No more than one per city. Under management of the city's mayor. The idea here is that this could be the focal point for trade and in terms of game play a key fixed asset that can be attacked/raided and needs to be defended. Also a structure that would require the collective effort of a whole city or even planet in early stages of development to facilitate full scale trade.

Could be combined with Spaceports...
