Review: the development should be more in a contemporary fashion, where the cultural value of the place is not lost.

Review: As a matter of fact, I think that China these days is leading the worlds' economy by its busniess and its architecture, though some of it is not completed. But they really could be one of the new wonders in the world. I believe that China is erasing one of the best times in its history (communism) that they suffered from socially, politically, and in terms of development.

Review: I just want to view this mega projects with a new perspective. The intangilbe values of this mega projects are crucial for China's future growth. For example: The bureaucrats in charge of these projects have learned the importance of transparency and integrity in large scale project management. The construction standard will be transformed forever. The thousands of skill workers will be re-trained with new attitude and new skill level. The local architects/students will learn to build their own world class building in the future. It it the quickest way to learn from the best of the best in the world. China has leap forwarded finally with this mega projects in terms of the project management, design and architecture. The greeness of the building or the maintainence of the art/sport performance is another story.

Review: I have been in China for 7 years and I wonder what will happen with all these buildings after the Beijing Olympics? Who will take care of maintaining the buildings? Will there really be any sport events? According to my experience the fantastic buildings will be empty spaces with little use after the Olympics.

Review: No stadium that uses that much excess steel can be called "green."

Review: No way, those buildings should be more than monumentals shows of the so called China revolution in wonderland. I see no China at all, but a grandiose copy of Western philosophy as far as looks and perhaps something else. China is so great that it should go back to their ground and design something Chinese. It will be better than all those heavy buildings empty of soul.

Review: By learning from others and incorporating their ideas into their own is a great attribute to be honoured and appreciated. This will ensure that they will continue to improve and to benefit others towards a better and more friendly world for all to live.

Review: So far, 'ta' is the only one I agree with. Those buildings are magnificant in their own right. China is an industrial power, lots of money, and they're not just showing off. I think it takes a lot of heart and brains to bring these buildings to their completion. Makes me think of another country-- spilling brains and breaking hearts. If these buildings are a sign of success, responsibility towards their natural resources (power or water anyone?) then what does it say about the rest of the world building for the ever expanding populace? Speak up. What's so nice about your architecture? Relax, they're just buildings.

Review: Hey- you are on the wrong track!! Art is art and modern art/architecture is modern art/architecture!! There does not need to be anything "chinese" about it because it is art and the artist is "chinese". Who said that "modern art" is only western? What you want is "traditional" architecture... that is a matter of choice! Just because something is 'modern' - it does not mean that it is 'western'!!
