When the country collapses and they look back 100 years from now, they will understand that this is one of the single stupidest ways to waste the wealth earned by your singular source "oil". What a failure of a people 🤦🏼
Natural resources will end eventually, the future is going to be based on natural energy 's it's what's going to save humanity in the long run, your statement is the failure here.
200 meters thick and 500 meters tall.... That's a lot of artificial lighting and forced air. Burj Khalifa is 100m taller, igboring the spire and cost $1.5Bn to built to house 10,000 people in 0.5km2 of area. To house 9,000,000 people, you need 900 times more rooms but these need living spaces and kitchens. So at least 450km2 lets quadruple it to make a comfortable flat size but half it to give the average unit 2 people. 900km2 at 170km long and 0.2km deep you could cram it all into 26 floors. But it's 500m tall and a skyscraper floor being 3.7m including deck. Using the Burj Khalifa as an example. That means 20% of the overall volume could house humans in 2 bed flats with a living space two bathrooms and a small kitchen.... This is starting to seem realistic. Everyone using public transport would be better and walking based city units are certainly more efficient than the current system for cities.... I rather like the idea. It's more efficient and as far as global resource use goes, it should be more economical than a city. Better still, use this to link two existing cities together and get rid of urban sprawl. May not be great for mental health, fire safety, terrorism, etc... But it's a better use of money than fast cars, super yachts, mansions and such like. Cost >$2,000,000,000 at 2004-2010 prices which is 5x the GDP of UAE. But if they can sell units as they're made, then it becomes sustainable and maybe even self funding. Just waiting for the Apple or Google district to be purchased. Allocation of volume for residents mental health, economic prosperity, suitable distribution of commercial activities will be tricky. To prevent chains from having a disproportionate number of locations in one zone. E.g. The Starbucks zone with 1 store per floor. It could be in danger of becoming another homogenous city centre.
@@oDIRECTORo I think you're right, but I could be a lot more environmentally friendly than current cities without much extra work. Since they don't want to move to a cooler climate, this may be the better solution. Surface area to volume ratio is ok their side for energy use cooling it down.
The powerful are expecting zombies from all the new virus evolutions due to the changing planet, some time in the 2020s, so it also fits into that as a way for people to live in the future when zombies are still around
What kind of prison hell is this?

No animals would be able to cross this structure so it would cause a lot of problems.

It will NEVER happen. Even if he has 100 trillion.

These guys saw sheikh zyad road and were like okay let’s turn this into a city
This is what our future holds??? It's a fancy jail with shopping malls and fake scenery.
How would anyone at the bottom get sun light
Litteraly a horror video game.
If this is successful, then coruscant and dystopian tropes here we come I guess
