New Kabul City


In this March 30, 2011 photo, Elham Omar Hotaki, deputy of the pilot project of the planned New Kabul City walks past by white line showing part of the outline of a planned new city north of Kabul, Afghanistan. "New Kabul City", a shiny new, multibillion-dollar project, sounds like a pipe dream to people living practically on top of each other in Afghanistan's war-battered capital, where most streets are unpaved and security forces are on constant watch for suicide bombers. But urban planners, investors and government officials working to develop the modern urban area about a 30-minute drive north of Kabul say it will be home to an estimated 1.5 million people when it's completed in 2025.
