Jeddah Economic City, Urban development project north of Jeddah, Saudi Arabia.
Jeddah Economic City is an urban development project north of Jeddah that integrates residential neighborhoods, commercial spaces, and public areas across a large site. The development connects different zones through a planned network and modern infrastructure.
The project began in 2015 under Kingdom Holding Company as part of Saudi Arabia's broader plan for modern urban expansion. It marked a turning point in how the region would grow economically and spatially.
The development brings together contemporary architecture with Saudi design traditions, creating a space that merges local and international influences. Visitors can see this blend in the building facades and spatial layouts, which combine modern comfort with regional character.
The site is easily accessible by car and offers extensive parking and road networks for through-traffic. Visitors should note that construction is ongoing in various sections, so not all areas are equally developed.
The project includes the planned Jeddah Tower, intended to be among the world's tallest buildings and set new standards for skyscraper design. This structure was conceived to reshape the skyline and become a landmark.
