Should every Somali city be like this

Inshallah when Somalia becomes an industrial middle income country with a GDP of 200 billion dollar economy, should every city in Somalia
be modern like Hargeysa

We need a modernised, traditional Somali architecture of large bleached white coral buildings. Also the architecture of cities like harar, Zaylac ect. All should be reviewed, expanded upon and modernised to create a new Somali landscape that looks - Somali - and not endless international glass and steel towers.

fr. I hate modern somali buildings. They dont even look good. They look like shabby semi modern buildings that try to look cadaan. And that awful Huge Signs that show the comany name hanging of the roofs. We just need architects that are inline with somali architecture

I'd visit Djibouti if a bottle of water wouldn't bankrupt me there
Djibouti is expensive cause of these foriegn citizens are tourists. Average Djiboutian git a gdp per captia of about $3k. Way more than horn africans. However it's still tiny when adjusted for the cost of living in Djibouti city

Idk about other cities but Mogadishu should follow a similar path like Muscat, which is today a beta-global city. We should mix our old coastal architecture with a modern twist to it.

we need wider roads, yellow lines and sidewalks. Anybody who's been somalia knows that people and food stalls in the middle of the streets makes driving a nightmare.

I'd like each city to have it's own unique infrastructure and even different coloured road pavings for pavements and side roads, so you can instantly tell which city you're in. Inshallah we'll also have railways and underground tube systems that traverse the coastlines and travel in between cities. We should also connect the railways to the mountains in the north for scenic views and cargo transport.

With our vast gas reserves it's all possible. Inshallah our leaders start to plan cities more carefully. Also underground parking is a must in every region, cities must be built with this in mind! to reduce traffic and pollution. We don't want to have the same issues that the USA and UAE suffer from.

I was thinking that though for a population of 30-40 mill it wouldnt be sustainable. We need to create jobs so i think it would be pretty hard to do so with a muscat style residental area

What a beautiful view. We should capitalise on our beautiful coastal cities and build upon them. We also should dig wide rivers and lakes with differing sediments, line with limestone and caco3 it would create a beautiful scenic view that reflects the blue sky. We could then even charge tourists for river rides.

How would it not be sustainable? For the example I used for Muscat, over 1/4th of their country lives in the capital.
