      There is nothing to say that it wouldn't have plenty of space, that all comes down to design. There is about zero chance this project goes anywhere, but space exists in 3 dimensions, upwards is space just the same as out is. The main issue is cost, cost dictates how much space people get, based on what people can afford. Like anything, if it was built, rich people would get the prime spots with the most space, and poor people would get smaller crappier abodes within the structure, but most of these kind of fantasy projects start off with claims of equity where everyone will have plenty of everything.

      Mens get married at the age of 40 and everyone know that at the age of 40 fertility rate is very low and Saudia people have very bad habit of having coffee at night the people who sleep late at night they lose that fertility level double than normal people and the smoke cigarette in Shisha All Night now this will reduce the fertility rate double now in the womens of Saudi Arabia now they don't want to grow that children 90% are divorce and not getting married again at my prediction in 2030 they will face the highest low population problem I think the king is entertaining their population because they want to hide there how much the world is generated from their natural resources and people of Saudia facing now highest inflation very hike in rental apartments now their boing their own petrol in high prices the government is corrupted I said in Saudi Arabia for more than and 15 years the people are really very good people very friendly people I am very sad for the brothers sisters there they are getting tortured and force not to travel very commonly around the the world hope it will get success

    I like the idea of vertical living, no cars etc, but there's just no need to make the scale so absurdly huge. It would be better to make it half as high and just extend the line as demand requires. Also it need not stretch deep into the empty desert, just build along the coast instead. That way you have more seafront views, more room for habours/marinas, a cooler climate and you could have it act as a giant desalination plant for fresh water.

      Understatement of the century. It's going down in freefall. 30 years ago row houses felt cramped (houses built side by side with a shared wall), then apartments entered the scene, usually in big blocks, then renovating those row houses into apartments became a thing, cramped to super cramped, now studios are a thing where a single apartment is chopped in 2 or 3 to give every tenant a single room with everything in it, somtimes with a shared kitchen or ... even bathroom. This is in the big cities and the price of those shoeboxes can get you a house with land somewhere else. Saudi Arabia is creating a model shoebox for the future cities. Insane and absolutely absurd.

    The most terrifying fact about these very long mirror walls, is the enormous amount of solar energy that will be focused at the ground, and into the air around the buildings. And if two are built side by side, they will act like solar ovens, heating each other and creating a horrific heat issue that will make them practically uninhabitable. Beyond that, is the immense light that the residents will deal with, blasting through their windows, which will require them to keep their window shade units closed at all times the sun is shining. Plus, there is a major psychological issue with structures that are tall, thin and very long that force humans to move in one linear direction to get anywhere. There is an inherent slavery in this design that encourages massive depression in the people who live there. On paper, it's a great design. In the real world, it's a horrible idea bound to cost trillions more than it is ultimately worth to overcome the restrictions of the high heat, high solar energy environment, it is slated to be built in. You would likely have to wear silver covered solar fire clothing, to actually stand in the environment, the reflection of a long wall of glass would focus on the ground. For a nation of men who have always been brilliant at hiding their skin from the horrendous heat of the sun under valiant robes and clothing, this structure makes no sense. They know better than anyone. You must respect the power of the Sun.

      @@mosesnacorie9681 Intrestingly enough, dry on one side and wet on the other could even be a useful trait.
      There are many possible innovations that could utilize such a change in humidity/moisture.
      For example a humidity gradient-based power generator, where the difference in moisture could be a source of electric power.
      It wouldn't be a very large amount of power, but it would be a very consistent backup for solar and wind power.
      You could probably also use the humidity gradient to produce fresh drinking water by having a filter that goes from the wet side through to the dry side of the wall,
      the water would be pulled into the filter by sheer vapour preassure without the need of an external power source.
      Though i admit that such device would be far from efficient in of itself.
      I'm not saying that its worth it to have such a difference in humidity when constructing buildings as it also causes various problems,
      but i am saying that there are atleast potential upsides aswell.

      It's a giant prison with only artificial light at the bottom, where the poor live. If you are near the middle, it will take hours to be able to quit the building if you live in the middle, and since it will have its own administration and laws (according to the project), it will essentially be like a death giant trap for its inhabitants. Imagine having to take an elevator to go to the top just to see the outside. Now it sounds like a prison, doesn't it ? The access to the top may be restricted to only certain classes of population if the powerful want.
      You cannot start demonstrations in The Line, as you are immediately circled by cops on the left and the right.
      The super rich will live nearby the sea, where they have direct access to the water and can escape easily if needed. On the other side they can leave quite quickly as well, but they are dependent on water and if there is a sabotage, potentially millions of people would be cut off water. If electricity is cut, the building would overheat in a matter of days. The rest willl be trapped for hours if not days as well.
      Giant waste of money for a completely dystopian world imagined by a rich idiot.

You need to take into consideration floods, so if you are building this, ensure all housing is way off ground. Also, consider worldly changes like continent shifts and how the water from the sea may inpact such a structure. If water rises for any reason, it will literally feed/barrel into this line all the way.

    As a German architect, some questions arise in my mind. Due to the strongly deviating temperature influences, I wonder how the project reacts to the basic principles of thermodynamics. Because in this building project, and especially due to the length and height, building materials expand differently. This would cause fatal damage or worse to the building. I also see coming social problems not only in the construction of this giant structure but also in its finished state. Scenarios like recently in Qatar where only during the construction of stadiums and hotels estimated 6,500 people have perished would be quite higher with such a structure. I can not really get anything out of the whole thing.

Ramadan is a bit annoying because the noise only completely disappeared after a week of echoing. But apart from that everything is good. Last week I went on a boat tour. But after 150 miles of subway I realized I had gone to the camels. So… it wasn't ideal with swimming trunks. Otherwise one can say that life is good here. Schools, kindergartens, everything great. My interview partner has now also gone to the next apartment. The gun on my forehead bothered me a bit.

      The idea is stupid from the get go, and it's a giant prison from which millions of people cannot escape in case of attack or fire. You have to take an elevator to go to the top just to look outside. Provided the government allows you to do that. The way out exists only on one end, the other being the ocean. So it's extremely easy for the government to control the population. People would be trapped like in North Korea.
      You would have to be a massive idiot to want to live in this thing.
      Ecologically, it's a complete disaster as the surroundings will hit 80 to 90°C due to the mirrors, so all life in the desert is impossible a few hundreds of meters around this thing. Millions of birds will crash against the mirrors and die each year.
      Given it's supposed to be 200m wide and 500m high, there won't be any light most of the time at the bottom and in fact it will be COLD, because of that, and constant and massive winds going east-west (think winds in NYC, but 50 times worse). So basically, it will be barely livable.
      The sheer amount of CO² generated just to make the concrete is unprecedented. The energy wasted to regulate the temperature is stupid. The desalination of water to water all the plants would bt the biggest waste of energy ever on this planet by orders of magnitude. Let's not forget that it's from the government that built a ski station in a place with an average temperature of 20°C and which barely reaches 0°C in winter.
      I could go on and on and on with all the engineering problems that make this project a complete disaster, but I won't because I know that it will never be completed, like so many projects that Saudi Arabia has failed in the past. It's just a giant scam for idiotic investors.

    I also have another idea. Instead of making it a line, why not make it into a more adaptable structure like, for example, ⭐a circle⭐, circles are a much better shape for cities since it allows them to expand freely while ignoring obstacles like hills and deserts, they are also much denser (compare literally any city with this).
    By the way normal cities don't need giant fucking mirrors to support their structure since they can have the ground support them.
    Also I find it unnecessary for them to be 500 meters tall since they are in the middle of a fucking desert, I mean, there's pratically unlimited space to build anything and they chose *THIS.* with 1 trillion dollars you could completely diversify the economy of Saudi Arabia by investing in education, in the private sector and making it a more attractive place for educated people to live, something the government desperately needs to do. But NOOO, you need to build a colossal fucking glass rectangle worth a trillion dollars that is a painful slap in the face of the Saudi people who need to see their money going into building this thing that can only be classified as a parasite that is perfectly designed to suck money from the people and stupid investors. Sorry for the rant, but it's just this stupid.

Why will they want to live there? What will they do there? Are they employees or entrepreneurs or owners of businesses there? So many social, economic, legal and political issues that I hope had already been addressed before the Saudis decided to proceed with this project.
