Panoramic views of Dongchang Subway Station Exit No. 2 by Century Boulevard

A very balmy, windy, sunny and cloudy morning...

As always, going to do grocery shopping and always via this way back, a favorite route dotting with good urban features, I have to take a few moments to capture the above shown panoramic views. The same view was shot twice, one a little wider than the other.

Immediately next to the Exit No. 2, the building in the centre is nearing its completion. With endless flow of human traffic relying on Line 2 Subway at this Dongchang Subway Station, the site in proximity used to be be an empty or abandoned lot with unsightly features around. It was an undesirable and fragmented urban corner. Now that some well featured building is allocated, the urban corner appears much more appealing than ever.

Now, this is progress.
