Jan 18th, 2016: Nail Houses

Diaphone Jim · 01-18-2016, 12:15 PM

Since I am still without video service thanks to an AT&T enforced dial-up internet connection, I have to miss the shepherd link.
I do encourage looking through the linked photos of other "nail houses" in Shanghai. Each one has things that makes one ask "what the heck is that."
It is hard to figure out which ones are homes and which, as Bruce asks. just Mo Money hold outs.
The example he picked does seem to show a progression from right to left, from a short original to a livable three-story.
What is the blue, stringy stuff?
And what are the weird hats on some of the high rises?
