how many someone become a billionaire and be so stupid as to attempt to build a city in California?

If he had half a brain he would be building it in East Texas!

This guy will waste billions and this will never get built, because California is more concerned about some random bug or mouse than this.

Will there be a fence around it?
My thoughts exactly

[Feckless]

I say we send as may Illegal Aliens and Homeless as we possibly can...

I heard China was buying land around AFBs. Has anyone checked this group out? Are they Marxist?

[kjam22]

Yep… and it is like 80 square miles

[maddog55]

So a city full of liberals and snowflakes with a climate agenda. That’s every city in California.

Aren’t homeless people the most green? No house, no power consumption, shxt in the street, no vehicles, etc.

[dforest]

No thanks. A planned city like this will require “planned people”. Maybe they can call it “Stepford”.

I don’t go for that.

Images appear to be lily white. Need to over represent blacks, illegals, and the homeless and see how long the utopian idea will last.

53,000 acres of Eloi.

This smells like a scam.

Where will the homeless camps go? How about the mosque? The gay/lesbian/whatever center?

Maybe they will be able to design a walkable city that is livable.

With 640 acres per square mile that is a little over 82 sq mi - or a square 9 miles on a side.

They'd better get sturdy walking shoes.

Oneida, Amana, Shekina.......... All communist utopias. All gone.

To paraphrase Grocho:

I wouldn’t want to live in a city that would have me for a resident.

[Elsie]

Ya wanna nowhere city?

Try The Eden Project; just sw of FortGarland, CO.

I’ve heard the centerpiece in Babel was going to be pretty spectacular, but it appears they couldn’t read the instruction manual.

13 miles - corner to corner

[Elsie]

Depends.

Gonna take it back home to eat it?

It is such a flood zone over there. Last time I was at Travis, the highways in the area were all flooded out.
