Putting on a New Face

The city is all a-buzz about the upcoming World Expo which will take place in Shanghai this summer. With less than a month before opening day, workers are frantically finishing up hundreds of projects all over the city. Flowers are being planted everywhere, all the buildings are getting spruced up, & they're putting in a new subway line that will stop right next to my apartment.

Right now the city looks half finished because everything is under construction or getting a facelift. They've almost built a completely new city in just a few years. It's kind of ironic that the theme of the Expo this year is sustainability.
