it's 170 kilometers long it's 500 meters tall 9 million people will be living there it's in
in the middle of the desert my name is greg and i'm experience civil engineer and i'm
going to be reacting today to the line the ingenious design of the city of future so
let's have a look what they got for us for too long humanity has existed within dysfunctional
and polluted cities that ignore nature now a revolution in civilization is taking place
imagine a traditional city and consolidating its footprint designing to protect and enhance nature
the line will be home to nine million residents nine million nine million residents this is crazy
that's what i said at the beginning this is like london this is like new york so imagine all these
people in that line it's crazy let's have a look with a footprint of just 34 square kilometers
34 square kilometers so imagine how they squeeze all that population there let's have a look
and we are designing it to provide a healthier more sustainable quality of life
that's what we definitely need mine's communities are organized in three dimensions
residents have access to all their daily needs within five-minute walk neighborhoods
and the lines infrastructure makes it possible to travel end-to-end in 20 minutes
uh guys just so you can realize 170 kilometers is like the distance between london and birmingham
so imagine this in 20 minutes covering that distance even our new hs2 not going to be
able to do that so this is crazy that design is great resulting in zero carbon emissions
by leveraging ai technology services are autonomous saving you time and effort i
see some flying drones and it looks that ai technology but to be honest with you guys
it's already here we got drones everything can be delivered now i think it's more about the
regulation how it's all gonna be done but uh it looks like taken from the future but uh i think
we nearly there by world leading architects the line is 500 meters tall 200 meters wide so
that's another one it's designed by architects so guys remember that we see the engineers later we
have to think how we're going to be working with architecture vision but we need to make it work
so that's another one here and it's 500 meters tall so imagine the one in london the shark the
tallest building in london is only 300 meters and that line meant to be 170 kilometers long so it's
crazy it's definitely something from the future and housed within an elegant mirror glass facade
intelligent solutions create efficiency and year-round temperate micro climate with
natural ventilation yeah so obviously the warm air going up and the cool air coming
in uh that was used thousand years ago obviously this is convection
the law of uh transfer of the temperature but what i really like about it is actually taking
that old knowledge and connecting with the cutting continent technology the only problem here is guys
this is in the middle of the desert so the temperature is going to be around 40 degrees
but as far as i know i think the temperature gonna be dropping uh one degree every 100 meter
so that's gonna be only five degrees less than at the bottom of that line and uh let's be honest
about it that's 40 degrees and even despite this in the middle of the desert the nights there
they're not going to be that cold to bring that cool air in so i'm not really sure about what
they got here how they want to solve it energy and water supplies are 100 percent renewable
that sounds nice the line is designed as a series of unique communities offering a wealth of
amenities providing equitable views and immediate access to the surrounding nature sounds great with
40 of the world accessible within 6 hours 40 of the world accessible within 6 hours this is
absolutely crazy this is great and you can have a look how that line is looking from the heart of
the globe's key trade routes a place for commerce and communities to thrive like nothing on earth
seen before the line the city that delivers new wonders for the world yeah so it's definitely new
wonders for the world and now stay with me guys i'm going to jump to the website there and let's
have a look are they for real there or is just a design for the future far away not even possible
to do yeah so that's their website it's a neon so all that project here it's done by neon and
what we have a look here i think that's the city here the line it says so uh it's a flying uh lady
there so to be honest it more for me looks like a metaverse project than the real one
to be done but these guys taking this for serious guys and let's have a look here what they got in
news neon now event so we got the new launches public exhibition share detailed design so they
actually got some detailed design so they're taking it serious guys they want to build it
and despite it looks like taken for the future it looks like impossible nothing is impossible
guys and i definitely going to be keeping eye on this project and i'm going to keep you posted
what's going on here and the good thing about this project guys i actually found out here uh they got
that roger nickel guys and that guy worked for a buro Happold in London he took parts in projects
like Battersea power station where i myself took a little part and he's the head of design and
construction there so having a guise like this there is a small hope that it actually might be
built and i myself believe nothing is impossible and i myself keep a fingers crossed for these guys
i believe everything is possible so we just have to wait and see but to be honest with you at this
point it looks more like a metaverse project and i can't really imagine building like 170 kilometers
long 500 tall city now so i believe Elon musk first gonna fly to mars before this is going to
happen but i'm not saying it's not going to happen the progressive with design and i think they
actually want to construct it but remember guys this is Saudi Arabia there so we had a promising
jeddah tower which meant to be 1000 meters tall and it's just on hold now so they dreaming big
this is good guys they got ingenious design they actually implementing some projects there but
as Jeddah showed us it's on hold and this one i don't think it's gonna happen but i really keep
the fingers crossed as i said so guys uh thank you for watching if you like this video just leave the
thumbs up i'm gonna leave the links below for all you've seen today and uh yeah subscribe to
the channel if you want more civil engineering content so thank you again and see you next time
