View from my window


Here's the view from my hotel window last Thursday morning in Beijing around 8:30 AM.

Despite presently having all of the aesthetic charms of Detroit in the 1970s, Beijing is developing a lot of cutting-edge architecture as part of the preparation for the 2008 Olympics. In the distance you can see the CCTV building under construction. When it's finished it will look like this.

Actually, I was in Detroit last year and believe me, this is better than Detroit. At least, there's some semblance of building and creating here where it's plain dead and lifeless in Detroit.
