I’m back from my huge China trip and of course I also covered all the construction going on there. So I have construction updates for buildings in Shanghai, Hong Kong, Beijing, Guangzhou, Shenzhen, Xi’an, Hangzhou and Suzhou. It will take a while until I post all of them here, since I took over 13,800 photos during the trip and as you can imagine it takes a while to sort through all of them, but let’s start with Shanghai.
All Shanghai updates were taken between 16th and 21st August
Thanks for the updates Raptor, I've been meaning to do it myself, but damn it if I haven't been too lazy. As you can see in his pics, the north side is pretty much done...although there are still some yet to be panelled strips on the south side (see Raptor's first pic). The crown looks about done as well...at least I think--to be honest I still have no idea where they are going with that thing.

So, this one appears to be pretty much done. Even the nighttime lighting system is in full effect--the crown lights up white and there are some odd rainbow colored lights running up and down the center. Sorry no pics.

Sexy. So if it's a hotel is there a restaurant or lounge on top? That would be awesome to hang out in that open structure there...
I also thinking that, seeing the other photo with the lights hanging above the huge arched section. Restaurant, club....freaking great location to have something like that, outdoors on the top a skyscraper.
