It's an arcology. Of a different design, but still a "15 minute city" that's all but a prison in name.
ReplyDeleteThe Saudi regime is fast tracking into a dystopia. I doubt they'll like what they get.
It's tragic for all the people displaced or killed, and all for a stupid utopian city that will never be completed.

ReplyDeleteWhen I was a kid, for some reason, I fantasized about a restaurant that would run straight across the U.S., one continuous building. Guess I figured that if I ever went across country I'd be able to get a hamburger literally any time I wanted one. In retrospect, I suppose the idea was a bit...impractical.
