It's still cheaper and more advantageous to stack people on top of each other. There's so much room to spare "up" that I doubt we'll ever "run out of space". Settling in Antarctica (as is) will never be more appealing than adding another story to your building- and we'll run out of just about everything else before we run out of space. Human beings aren't all that big, after all. The stuff we need and want takes up a hell of alot more room than we do - and a good portion of that is negotiable (and can also be stacked vertically).
I am the Infantry. I am my country’s strength in war, her deterrent in peace. I am the heart of the fight… wherever, whenever. I carry America’s faith and honor against her enemies. I am the Queen of Battle. I am what my country expects me to be, the best trained Soldier in the world. In the race for victory, I am swift, determined, and courageous, armed with a fierce will to win. Never will I fail my country’s trust. Always I fight on…through the foe, to the objective, to triumph overall. If necessary, I will fight to my death. By my steadfast courage, I have won more than 200 years of freedom. I yield not to weakness, to hunger, to cowardice, to fatigue, to superior odds, For I am mentally tough, physically strong, and morally straight. I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!
