A mandarin chinese character (in white circle) spray-painted on the side of a building indicates the building will soon be demolished in Tianjin, China. The building stands in the former site of a hutong, a traditional Chinese residential alleyway, which is being demolished to make way for the construction of modern high-rise buildings in central Tianjin, China.
