#72 Neighborhood Ctr




I had a lunch with some Caterpillar colleagues today (Saturday) then wandered to Red Point for a haircut. After that I walked to the Neighborhood Center on Xin Dai Da Dao and did some window shopping. I snapped a few pictures above of the bakery, pharmacy, tea shop, and Starbucks. This is a nice place where you can stroll to stores without having to drive to a strip mall or a Walmart supercenter. China definitely delivers better walkability than the U.S. Of course the Chinese also aspire to own cars and develop traffic sprawl like America. No doubt they will get there.
