Don't worry about that fabulous concrete verandah that I'm sheltering under, out of the strong Chinese sun. That's the 1933 building, a former slaughterhouse and one of the most amazing buildings in Shanghai and it can wait for another day. No, today's building is the industrial building across the road.
I don't know if it is still used for an industrial processing or, like the slaughterhouse, it has be adapted for another purpose.
Shanghai has seen a remarkable redevelopment but it is good that a lot of the old remains.
ReplyDeleteSo true Andrew. A lot of it is in bad shape but the more good example there are like this and the nearby 1933 building then the better the hope for other buildings.
