Could a city be built out of Balloons?

+0
−0

I would like to use this scenario in writing a book.

Using only countless balloons that permanently hold hydrogen made from water could a city be built in the sky? Workers from the ground can raise balloons up to the builders. Other material would be vinyl to walk on. Landing on water for resupplies like fish the sky colony collect water and static electricity from the air to make hydrogen for fuel. High in the sky they are protected from what lie beneath.

I am asking what issues may the city in the sky have in sustainability and ways to make it possible?
