The phrase "A pictures worth a thousand words" definitely comes to mind.  Thanks for giving us all some nice perspective!   ;D

Where were these pictures taken?  Was it in a city on this planet?  I feel incrediby sorry for the inhabitants.

It could easily be Hong Kong. I've often wondered at high rises like this...surely not much maintenence is done on the structural part, and given human nature, I bet key pieces are dangerously modified over time.

Hong Kong's density is 6,317 per km^2. The US, as a whole, has 31 people per km^2. Urban Seattle has an average of about 2500 people per km^2.
