These are amazing videos of Chinese methods of building and rebuilding their infrastructure fast. While we take 4-8 months or more to renew and resurface our budges, China did this one in 43 Hours,

I'm a bit leery of the video of the vertical city knowing how China gets frequent big earthquakes.

I'm in construction management and this is amazing. I have read disparaging comments about the quality of Chinese construction but the high speed trains that will use the elevated rail system will dictate that the quality has to be the best or the train will tear it apart. It shows what could be done if you have the will.
