"calvin"

Beautiful or ugly? I don't know. But just had to take a few shots of this extremely shortlived five-star hotel (Ritz Carlton) on one of its last days. Being located in the CBD which is at the moment experiencing a serious shortage of office space supply, it has to yield to the rule of the invisible hand - it's being pulled down to make way for a new office development. And, while the internal demolition works are being carried out, the developer has even thought of using its facades for advertising... I might be too much city guy to notice such petty things.:-)

Ritz Carlton, Connaught Road Central, Hong Kong
