In the effort to ease and stimulate movement within Shanghai a series of ring roads
have been constructed circling the city. This picture is of a main juncture in the
system, with the buildings of central Puxi in the middle.

Due to childhood years when I spent entire days building 'Hot Wheels' cities --
roads and buildings -- out of cardboard, plastic, books, branches, rocks, sand,
and whatever else I could find ... the sophisticated planning and infrastruture
of cities like Shanghai are especially appealing to me.
