Saudi Arabia’s wildly ambitious plan to build 500m tall, mirrored, 170km long parallel skyscrapers, forming a 1.5M population desert city has been curtailed to 2.4km long.
The news was broken by the financial news publication Bloomberg, which said that Saudi Arabia’s government had “scaled back its medium-term ambitions” for Neom, of which The Line is the most significant sub-project.
The Saudi government had hoped to have 1.5M residents living in The Line by 2030, but this has been scaled back to fewer than 300,000, according to the report. It is unclear how it intends to house a higher concentration of people considering the proposed length (and therefore area) has been massively slashed.
I’m pretty sure the whole “can be seen from space” is wrong.
Ever used Google Maps? Everything can be seen from space.
Some things are too small to be seen from anywhere.
Like ur dick
lol gottem
You can’t see it with the naked eye, but only with magnification
That’s just existing with extra steps.
