Only for the window seat. The beautiful, in-the-corner window seat, with a hanging light. Only for that, would I travel all the way there again after my first unsuccessful visit.

While walking around Wynyard station, I saw all these stickers on the ground, and my curiosity was aroused.
Following them, I arrived at what seemed nothing to be more than a gigantic construction site.
I eventually found out from these workers that the site was still under development.
As I continued to walk around the area, I noticed many old buildings and structures.
Something nagged at me about the cultural and social price of this development project.
Feeling suspicious, I did some research on the internet. While the official site paints a promising and rosy picture, there have understandably been those adversely affected as well. I guess a development project on a scale like this couldn’t have been done without sacrifice. But really, what are the sacrifices for?
