About this audio guide
This guide to Boulevard World in Riyadh is about the people who made it rather than the ones who perform in it: seventy contractors on a round-the-clock site in late twenty twenty-two, racing to raise ten countries at once. It touches fibreglass, steel and the engineering hidden beneath the lagoon. Best heard at the water's edge, with the facades in view.
