Yeah, I like it.
Great.
An underground city full of junkies and whores. Soon to be choked with the suicidal sons of the desert.
Can’t wait.
I don’t think I would want to be underground in a country that is below sea level.
God built the world, but the Dutch built Holland.
The Muslims will live on surface while the native-born Dutch will live underground.
Brilliant!! Can someone say New Orleans.
I can’t, for the life of me, understand why New Orleans didn’t consult with the engineers in the Netherlands that seem to handle being below sea-level quite capably.
or the dikes.
“AMSTERDAM is to go underground as overcrowding”
“which will reduce the pressures of overcrowding”
“There has always been a lack of space in the city”
“are also feeling the strain of overcrowding”
Solution: Deport your large Muslem population. This will solve the overcrowding, decrease strains on your social services, decrease crime, and improve social cohesion and national unity.
Exactly. It’s a canal city. What a stupid idea.

The canals aren’t very wide, and in some locations there are already underground structures alongside the canal (which are, as I recall, pretty damp inside). So to construct any significant structures, they are probably going to have to undermine adjacent buildings.
Actually, the Dutch have used pump designs which originated in New Orleans. The Netherlands' superiority is in building flood control gates to tame the sea, roughly the same task as stopping hurricane storm surges. One such project was planned in the New Orleans area on the 1970s... but some environmentalist wackos sued in federal court and succeeded in halting the project.
Even though the Dutch aren't hobbled by the enviro-idiots, I still wouldn't want to live under a canal.
Makes about as much sense as a subway in New Orleans.
Muzz are thinking -—Wow more stuff for us when we take over
Interestingly, at a million square feet that ‘city’ is a little less than one-quarter the size of the Mall of America.
$7,400 per square foot. Somebody with more knowledge can tell me how outrageous that is or isn’t. And needless to say that price will go higher.
