That's actually been tried in the 70s, but for various reasons it never really took off: https://99percentinvisible.org/article/mobile-home-skyscrape...
With just 16km, this is not by any stretch going to be the world's second-longest tunnel, just the world's second-longest road tunnel. The longest tunnels are rail tunnels, which measure up to 57km (Gotthard base…
