The FT on Preserving Shanghai’s architectural heritage

Posted: February 28th, 2013 | No Comments »

An excellent video piece from Patti Waldemeir of the FT that hopefully indicates a sea change among some on preservation and puts to rest the old canard about old places being beyond repair and refurbishment unless of course they are deliberately vandalised into slums….(see my previous posts on “slums by intent” here and here).
