Saudi Arabia’s Mega-Project City
Saudi Arabia's Neom city is facing billions of dollars of cost overruns to date, with barely anything built to show for it. Neom is the brainchild of Crown Prince Mohammad Bin Salman(MBS), who has pledged to invest 500 Billion dollars into the city. Announced in 2017, the project wants to make a barren desert into a high-tech metropolis, with the key building being The Line, twin skyscrapers that expand over 110 miles.
