CCTV Building on the Rise - Beijing, China
© November 21 2007, Uncornered Market

The new CCTV (Chinese Government TV Station) in Beijing is to be finished before the Olympics in August 2008. When we visited in November 2007, there was still a long ways to go. Construction teams worked on it 24-hours a day; we would watch the sparks fly into the air in the middle of the night from our friend's 26th floor apartment nearby.
