Welders look over a demolition site where hutongs, small residential alleys, once stood in the center of Tianjin, China. A local resident said that the relocated residents were compensated for their houses but it was "not enough." Tianjin has demolished almost all of the hutongs in the city to make way for "modern" construction projects.
