Is any sort of ocean, bay, water connection.

Seems to just be farmland.

So I suppose there's a little creek there.

Yes, I was about to say, genuinely, genuinely, that is the plan.

They also don't even call it a creek.

They call it a slough.

And I'm just looking up what they, a place of deep mud or mire.

So their plan is to build the ships of the future and then push them through a swamp mud creek down to the bay instead of, I don't know, maybe just building your shipyard on the bay.

I mean, this feels familiar.

It feels like, you know, Elizabeth during her Black Swan series.

It feels like, and this is what I was thinking when I was looking at the pictures that you're showing me, it feels like Neom.

It feels like the Saudi city in the middle of the desert.

This looks like, these pictures also just look like, you know, Pyrmont.

I saw a fixing of the Lane Cove main stretch that looked exactly like this.

It looks exactly like this, it's Lane Cove.

What does he think that this town is going to be like?

What does he want it to be that, you know, just a general sprawling development wouldn't be?

I think he just wants this city to be the entirety of America in the 1930s.

Like, you know, like he just he's trying to recreate the glory days of an entire country, glory days that never quite actually existed in the way that he sort of thinks it did.

Like you couldn't call it anything more on the nose than California forever.
