Description
Saudi Arabia promised a 105-mile city of the future. A mirrored wall of glass rising out of the desert. No roads. No cars. Powered entirely by clean energy. But today, only 2.4 kilometers have been built. The population target has been slashed. Contractors are walking away. And the cost has ballooned to $8.8 trillion. So what is really happening to The Line?
