“The Line is an out-of-the-box idea,” NEOM CEO Nadhmi Al-Nasr told Bloomberg, adding without specifying that “what we will deliver when we are ready to, will be highly accepted, and will be considered as innovative.”Īccording to Al-Nasr, the tall buildings will be “varying heights as you walk,” according to the scenery and topography.

The fact that it will house the world’s highest buildings makes it an even larger project, as it will dwarf the present tallest artificial structure, Dubai’s 828-meter-high Burj Khalifa.
The city is still under construction, with only officials, workers, and planners living there, but the authorities hope to welcome inhabitants in 2024 and have millions of “Neomians” living there by 2030. It is intended to be a futuristic project with technologies such as flying taxis, an artificial moon, and classes taught by holographic teachers. The NEOM project, sponsored mainly by Saudi Arabia’s Public Investment Fund, is expected to create a technologically advanced and environmentally sustainable megacity that will attract investment and enterprises worldwide.
