Monaco's €2BN Sea Expansion
It is a place that attracts hundreds of thousands of visitors and is constantly innovating. A state where innovative multibillion-dollar real estate projects are underway, the most spectacular of which will open in a few months. This giant project is not in the Middle East, but in the Principality of Monaco, on the border with France.
Monaco, nicknamed “the Rock,” is a veritable coriander in geographical terms. Surrounded by France, it lies some 20 kilometers east of Nice and a stone's throw from the Italian border.
Monaco's surface area is only 2 square kilometers. It is therefore the second smallest country in the world, after the Vatican (0.44 square kilometers). By comparison, the city of Paris covers an area of 105 square kilometers.
However, with more than 39,000 inhabitants, Monaco is one of the most densely populated countries in the world. And space is a rare commodity. To expand further, a horizon was immediately identified. The Mediterranean, where man-made development projects are piling up. And the latest one is certainly the most impressive.
The new Mareterra extension has been under construction since 2015. It required a huge financial investment and the involvement of the world's leading architects. Although the project is supposed to be environmentally friendly, it has been criticized by many for turning the area into a new paradise for the rich.
Today, Looking 4 takes you to the Rock to discover one of the largest construction sites in Europe.

    Surely rather then relying on the lake's water, you would look to the the much larger body of water the other side of the lochs. It would need planning and plenty of bio filters and barriers. But you could look to pump water from the sea into the second and third locks. You'd just have to make sure to drain/flush the first lock from the lake before the next cycle to stop salt water mixing with lake. Would take a long time to pump water in compared to flowing in from upper locks. But compared to waiting for rain in a dry area, then it's not that long

    A bullshit megaproject destined to failure, nobody’s going to pay for docking, unloading the containers, loading them on a train, train ride to another port, there unloading it, and loading on a different ship, which also went through docking. And all this headache just to skip 700km on water which is a negligible cost for container ships.
