A quick update, we have talked about this before. This is a massive city in Saudi Arabia, that will be over 75 miles long. Very tall and will host 5 million people.

And construction is now underway.

“CG’s imagery shows 425 excavation vehicles on The Line itself, and over 650 vehicles on a construction base, over five square kilometers in size, that was built close by to house construction workers. The base is equipped with multiple swimming pools, soccer fields, and cricket pitches; it even has its own solar farm. “

But still, I’m not sure I want to live there. It will certainly be ruled under sharia law, meaning no alcohol and women covered in burkas. Should be really boring. I’m guessing that in thirty years this will be a very large slum.
