Seven cities in process of construction

Nusantara

Construction of Indonesia's new capital city, Nusantara, began in 2022 on the island of Borneo amid concerns that its current capital, Jakarta, would be submerged too quickly. This year, on the occasion of the country's Independence Day, which is celebrated on August 17, a presidential palace and government buildings are planned to be opened in Nusantara. Indonesia's new capital is being designed as a smart city with sustainable infrastructure and the use of innovative technologies for efficient resource management. Nusantara is also expected to become a carbon neutral city.

Many bridges will be built in Gelephu, which will not only connect different areas. They will house key city institutions, including a university, medical and spiritual centers as well as a market.

New town in Solano County

This town does not have a name yet, but it already claims to be the most pedestrian and greenest in the US. The concept of an eco-friendly city was developed by the California Forever firm, founded by former Goldman Sachs employee Jan Sramek. The project receives investments from Steve Jobs' widow Laurene Powell Jobs. The company spent about $900 million to acquire 50,000 acres of farmland in southeastern Solano County, California, and announced plans earlier this year to build a new city for about 50,000 residents.
