Looks like it's over.

Saudi Arabia’s sovereign wealth fund has asked consultants to review the feasibility of its “The Line” gigaproject, Bloomberg reported on Monday.

The Public Investment Fund has asked unnamed firms to look at whether the 170km-long linear city on its Red Sea coast can realistically be built.

This thing is never happening. The people in charge of making the CAD videos are all laughing (along with the overpaid architects).

Phase 1 of The Line will look like this once it's completed, with a capacity of 300,000 people.

From that picture (Correct me if I'm wrong) it looks like this airport concept is east of the mountains it is supposed to go through, so it is near the end. I don't know why they wouldn't just terminate it right before it, but being that this picture is just a very vague airport concept from more than a year ago, and that consultancy only lasted a year 2023-2024. I'd say the picture doesn't mean much.

Here's a simulation video showing how The Line will actually rise from the ground: https://x.com/mshary73453093/status/1911386720056050055

Inside THE LINE part 25
Working on the world's largest piling operation and getting up close really shows the monumental scale of what we are doing. We are currently operating many of the world's largest piling rigs and installing large 2.5m diameter , 70m long friction piles weighing 850 tones with over 16 000 piles installed in phase 1 on THE LINE.
