Billionaire Elon Musk is bringing American infrastructure into the future one ambitious project at a time.
Musk tweeted on Thursday that he received verbal government approval for The Boring Company to build an underground Hyperloop connecting New York, Philadelphia, Baltimore and Washington, D.C., in a cool half an hour. Each stop on the line would go through each city’s center and would have approximately 12 entry and exit elevators.
The tech mogul is behind Tesla, which has been a leading force in the rollout of electric cars domestically; SolarCity, a company that hopes to bring solar roofs to homes worldwide; and SpaceX, which has engineered a line of reusable rockets that have been sending commercial satellites into orbit before landing on a remote barge.
