Meaning... if we (America) could completely start from scratch where should a "Dubai" type city be?? This city virtually came out of no where and is one of the modern marvels of today's architecture and planning etc. Where could we just start a new city? And which city should get a "Dubai makeover"??
For me I would say somewhere like Louisiana, Arkansas, or Oklahoma would be a great place to start a megacity.
If we were to renovate any city to be like Dubai I would nominate Houston
It's nice to boast about sleek, modern architecture, but the fact of the matter is that Dubai is plagued with a glut of empty and foreclosed properties. In that sense, I would never want a city to emulate Dubai.

Las Vegas, it's in the desert and it's already over the top so it's a perfect candidate. Now of they could only figure out that water problem.
