Building Collapsed In Shanghai
China's construction sector has long been plagued with quality problems. Thousands of students died when schools collapsed during last year's earthquake in Sichuan province, raising complaints from parents and others who accused builders of cutting corners to boost profits
The building at the suburban Lotus Riverside complex toppled over almost intact, killing one worker.
The incident Saturday killed one worker and was an embarrassment for Shanghai's leaders as they prepare to showcase the city, one of China's wealthiest and most modern, during the 2010 World Expo.
But the high-resolution photos are really amazing.
