      Make a video in the future on the Shenzhen Bay Super Headquarters Base. Its a massive megaproject building an entire CBD from the ground up in just a few years. You mentioned the Oppo Headquarters by Zaha Hadid Architects in the area, you should cover the Tower C by Zaha Hadid Architects or any of the supertall skyscrapers there in a future video.

    About Rail Baltica: We aren't dismantling existing railways or stations. On the contrary, in Estonia, there is a massive project to electrify nearly 100% of the existing railway network and increase speed limits to 160km/h operations. RB adds a new rail capacity and creates a new rail corridor, but it does not replace the existing infrastructure.

    You forgot about the bridge over the Strait of Messina in Italy, set to begin construction in a few months. It will be the world’s largest suspension bridge, with a three-kilometer span, 400-meter-high towers, a third-generation aerodynamic deck, and four suspension cables nearly 1.3 meters in diameter. The bridge will accommodate both road and rail traffic. The final design was signed off by the Danish company COWI, a global leader in the field, while construction has been entrusted to the world-leading Italian-Japanese consortium WeBuild & IHI.

      Yeah the first 5 projects were not interesting at all. Just another tall tower for the ultra wealthy. I guess impressive in terms of height but its not something that benefits society as say a new nuclear plant or a dam or bridge. Heck even getting an HSR built in USA is probably more impressive overall than a skyscraper in Dubai or UAE or wherever. In my biased view at least...

We've proven we can do those fairly reliably, and sure, there's impressive aspects to some of them, but it's hard to imagine any of those will be particularly memorable - there'll just be more towers next year.

      It was incredible to watch as the sides inched towards each other without any support from below. As they got close it looked like they weren't going to join. With tweeks from the suspension cables it all went together no problem. That was some feat of engineering and bravery and skill by the actual builders.

      There isn't, since most of the properties are empty. The point is Dubai lives for tourism, and new buildings and projects being delivered always attract tourists.

    Whilst not as big as the projects mentioned in this video South Australia has multiple big things happening this year. The River Torrens to Darlington project should hopefully make some more progress this year as vast sections of the land have been cleared ready for work to begin.
    The Tram line in Adelaide this year will be closing for 4 new bridges to replace 3 level crossings and a redo of an existing bridge due to the Torrens to Darlington tunnels passing underneath (it'll be having a section for traffic to exit for a connecting intersection heading to the city). It's apparently meant to be over 6 months from mid 2025 and reopening in late Jan 2026.

      California HS rail is a public project within the same state, extremely expensive, and involving a lot of politics, and like a project of that nature may not even necessarily be profitable (not saying it should).
      LA(ish) to Vegas HS rail crosses state boundaries, making it even harder to execute publicly, but it's a much simpler and cheaper project, and one that has a strong business case and promising to be profitable, so it's no surprise that a private company jumped in on the opportunity to do it.

    It always saddens me when I see those megaprojects in Dubai. So much money and so much eccentricism. They could rebuild the Hanging Gardens of Babylon, structures, that would last centuries and make people in the future leave in awe about our artisanry, or they could make a huge leap in renewable building/shaping the future of susatinable living. But they just build the most soulless seen-everywhere-around-the-world-but-even-more-expensive-and-bigger cities and towers... Could be really something but is just mediocre at best.
