New images obtained by the ArchUp team from the Sudaaim district south of Riyadh reveal significant progress in infrastructure development. They also show the launch of actual construction work on residential units. The project is developed by the National Housing Company. Its progress is according to a well-planned timeline aimed at transforming desert land into a fully integrated urban community. Excitingly, the Sudaaim community is taking shape quickly and efficiently.

The Moment You Can Finally Touch the Streets and Buildings
If you were to stand today on the eastern edge of Sudaaim, you’d notice how streets are beginning to take their final form. Already, completed water, electricity, and sewage networks are laid beneath the surface. This area is no longer just an idea on paper or a distant construction plan. Rather, it’s becoming a physical, tangible environment, moving steadily towards the vision of Sudaaim’s integrated community.
