Life on the outskirts of Shanghai, 青浦区, Qingpu District.

Disappearing Shanghai... disposable residents.

黄浦区, Huangpu District. 

Mobile convenience store.

Bicycle tire repair stand.

Getting ready for morning business.

Morning chats.

Back alleyways.

On an early morning, in 黄浦区, Huangpu District, 

 from the Bund to the People's Square.

 Between the new high-rise buildings, you'll find some "old" Shanghai residents. 

The ones the government has not "relocate" for the new mega developers.

Build, baby, build.
Shanghai city center. 

Architecture? perhaps not. Buildings, yes.

The Langham, an art deco boutique hotel in Shanghai, near the People's Square.

One of the few landmark buildings left in Shanghai.
