This, like Marble Palisade, could take the form of either a land or a fortification. I'm not sure which we want to represent architecture.
Either way, I'm picturing a theme of sacrificing slaves to build things.

Holy expensive cost! I admit, we'd have to watch out for potential combo abuse with a card like this, and I know you're planning on using 0/1 tokens, which would use the cheapest token generation around. But even if you used cards like Breeding Pit or Nuisance Engine to fuel this land, it would still require a woeful amount of creature to get any value out of the thing. I'd suggest Replacing the ETB with {t}: Add {1}. After all, Phyrexian Tower is a good card, but I don't think anyone would call it broken. Either that, or I'd at least drop this to "Sac a creature: Add a {b}.

I'm fine with that. I tend to err on the side of "not good enough."

I agree this is way underpowered at the moment. Compare Phyrexian Altar which never did very much (and was itself a variation on Ashnod's Altar, which admittedly is a pretty ubiquitous combo piece).
