Masdar City

In 2008 construct began on Masrdar City (Abu Dhabi). It was supposed to be the world’s most sustainable city. It was supposed to have 0 carbon emissions, 0 waste, and 0 cars. By 2016, construction was stopped and plans were pushed out to a 2030 completion date.

As of now, the city sits (mostly) abandoned in the middle of a desert. There are less than 300 people living in this big city and the pictures above capture the silent loneliness of this city.
