Saudi Arabia Is Building A City That Is 100 Miles Long And Only 650 Feet Wide And It'll Blow Your Mind
Flanked by 500m high mirrored walls, officials say the megastructure will offer up to 9 million residents a temperate climate and short commutes, all powered by 100% renewable energy.
Named ‘the Line,’ Saudi officials say the project is ‘the city of the future’: a car-free metropolis that will run on 100% renewable energy and offer its residents clean air in an ever more polluted world.
It’s designed to host businesses as well as housing inside numerous vertically-stacked neighbourhoods, with residents facing a maximum commute of 20 minutes from one end of the city to the other.
Welcome to the future. People are thinking of everything including a city that can be home to 9 million people, only be 200 meters wide, drones in the infrastructure, and a transportation system that can get you anywhere in this 100 mile long city in 20 minutes. Fucking INCREDIBLE. A back to the future city.
Saudi Arabia is doing all sorts of INSANE shit lately. And not the insane shit they're usually known for like not letting women drive and stoning people in the streets. They have a new leader, Mohammed bin Salmon.

He is doing EVERYTHING everyone of us would do if we were suddenly a dictator with endless wealth and power, but still had the mind of a 13 year old. He's living a fantasy life. If I were a billionaire I would absolutely buy a sports team. So did he…he bought Newcastle United in the EPL for $409M. Then he turned around and started an entire professional golf league and paid everyone insane money to join his LIV tour because fuck it why not. He wants to make the rules for golf and he has the cash to do it. Then he got bored with sports so he decided to play real life Sim City and build the wildest city in the city of mankind. A straight line across the desert that is covered with mirrors and has zero emissions and essentially zero waste somehow. An entirely green city now that Saudi Oil and American consumption has combined to heat the entire planet to the point that apparently everything will some day look like Saudi Arabia. And then, you know, he also does that thing where if someone teases him he just has him killed. I am sure everyone of us fantasized about having a shit head middle school kid killed for what he did or said on the bus or at recess. MBS just living out everyone's childhood dream.
