A new city in Saudi Arabia



Nicolai Ouroussoff writes from Jidda, Saudi Arabia: "Just off a desert road about an hour's drive from this port city, an enormous arched gate capped by three domes rises out of the sand like the set for a 1920s silent film fantasy. It is, instead, a fantasy of contemporary urban planning, the site of what one day will be King Abdullah Economic City, a 65-square-mile development at the edge of the Red Sea."
