Hive city

A hive city is a type of arcology or vertical city that closely resembles a beehive in its density and organization. As early as Virgil's Aeneid, comparisons have been made between certain cities, namely Carthage, and beehives. Today, the term is used in both science fiction, especially in the Warhammer 40,000 universe, and in urbanism.
