Pegasus Global Holdings (us neither) wants to build "The Center"
-- an ominously named ghost town on the New Mexico plains. The
20 square mile development will be theoretically capable of
housing 35,000 people but will remain deliberately devoid of
inhabitants. Instead, it'll be rented out to companies wanting
to test their technology in a real urban environment, rather
than just testing it out in a real urban environment. Companies
can examine things like residential solar panel efficiency,
smart traffic systems or the best way to secure wireless
networks in dense areas. Presumably doing that in Detroit would
be too expensive, or something.   New Mexico's science ghost
town: bands won't play no more, too much fighting on the dance
floor
