A fashionable department store owned by jewellery magnate Tang Canbing (唐蒼濱). It opened to the public in 1969 and thrived for decades but stiff competition and the Hai’an Road redevelopment project in the 1990s led to its eventual closure around 2004. In its later years the mall rebranded as Young Noble (年輕貴族), possibly after it was sold. The building was steadily dismantled over the course of the early 2010s and turned into a parking lot.

I am a web application developer, photojournalist, urban explorer, and history enthusiast passionate about the open web and documenting my experiences on this planet. This project was founded in the early 2010s and has evolved into a sort of personal Wikipedia of places that interest me (and often the photographs I’ve taken there). I’m originally from Toronto, Canada, but spend most of my time residing in Taiwan.
