Jeddah is poised for a major transformation as Saudi Arabia embarks on a grand ambition to modernise and revitalise the historic Red Sea port city in a bid to position it as leading global economic and cultural powerhouse.
A vibrant new community centered around an 11-km-long man-made canal – the first of its kind in Saudi Arabia – is set to be built in Jeddah as part of a transformative, mixed-use development in the north of Jeddah.
Over the past year, four key components of the $20-billion Jeddah Central development – the Industrial Museum, the Opera House, the Sports Stadium, and the Oceanarium – have taken center stage at prominent international real estate events.
