Taken @ Si nan lu, shanghai
Si nan road is one of my favorite streets in downtown, it is quiet and on the both sides there are nice old buildings. And now the situation is changing since the big real estate company drove all the families who once lived there away, and started to re-decorate those old houses and make them look very luxury, all the warm and daily-life feeling on this street about this city is gone … Now when you go there, you can find an entertaining place - Sinan Mansion. Today when I walked by, I saw the construction machines starting the “new face” project too. The passerby was checking the inside of the old house .

Neat image, like the black and white.
That’s sad. There is conflict in the US between preserving historic buildings and real estate development. Does China make an effort to preserve important old structures?
