1933 Old Millfun

1933 Old Millfun in Shanghai occupies a 1933 slaughterhouse designed by a British architect remembered only as Balfour, a maze of curved air bridges, spiral staircases and hollow concrete walls. The guide traces how the building's strange geometry was built around the animals moved through it, and what became of the site once the killing stopped decades later. Stand in the central atrium and look up at the ramps and bridges spiraling overhead.
