And then the next few shipyards are the next shipyards where we build submarines and other programs.

The good news is that they all fit on the six and a half miles of waterfronts that we own in Solano County on the Deepwater Ship Channel, all of them.

And that is less than 10% of the holding that we have overall in the area.

So this shipyard has the scale to really move the needle for the country.

But it's not just that.

This is a map of all of the shipyards in the United States, public and private.

And what you can see is that most of them are huddled around on the eastern seaboard and in the Gulf.

I hate to break it to you, but the enemy is that way.

If you're the Chinese Communist Party, the first thing that you'll do in any kind of conflict in the Pacific is you will bomb or otherwise shut down the Panama Canal.

And if you've done that, there is no way to bring our ships back into the United States into the shipyards for repair.

And there is no way to bring new ships out into the conflict without going around Argentina, which is tens of thousands of miles away.

So we desperately need new shipyards.

We desperately need them on the West Coast.

And the good news is that the best and the biggest site in America for shipbuilding, for new shipyards, happens to be located in the Bay Area, which is number one, the best natural harbor in the country, and number two, where all of the AI talent is that you need to build the ships of the future in the shipyard of the future.

Lastly, you can't just build a shipyard and a manufacturing park.

You need to build a whole city to support them.

And to do that, we're building a new walkable city for up to 400,000 people.

But unlike the shipyard and the foundry, which are about technologies of the future and of the 21st century, the city is inspired by old American neighborhoods, by places like Charleston and the West Village and Marina in San Francisco, where you have traditional, beautiful architecture.

Your eight-year-old can walk to school alone.

you can have dinner with friends in a public square.
