(Note: The taller building in the background to the left is the Four Seasons Hotel Shanghai. Further away on the right is Hang Lung's Plaza 66 on Nanjing Lu West. This prime site being cleared is on Shimen Yi Lu)建建建

(Note: The Centre in the background, towering above URA H18 Project at Peel Street/Graham Street, is actually a “省招牌” URA project completed in the late 1990s.)
(Note: a 3rd and the tallest skyscraper, code named "Shanghai Centre" will start construction next year, with target completion in 2012. From this viewing angle, the new building, which is supposed to look like a "twisting dragon" designed by architecture firm Gensler, will be to the right of the building being constructed (Sun Hung Kai's Shanghai ifc) and in front of Shanghai World Finance Centre. "Shanghai Centre" will probably be about 100m taller than the SWFC)

I adored skyscrapers soooo much when I was a kid; now I hope there should be less sky-high monsters in our city -- u just can't see the sky or feel the wind-blowing ...
Hong Kong is quite extreme for our development densities...
We could be at least 3 to 4 times more dense than other cities when you compare development densities.
But then the flip side of that is it enabled a very efficient mass transit system and has preserved alot of green open space that could be easily reached from the urban area.
