Nail House Gets Hammered

Posted on April 3, 2007 Under Life

Because we received so much feedback from the original post, I felt compelled to inform you all that Yang Wu and Wu Ping have succumb to the Chinese Government and the real estate developer that will build a shopping mall in the area that their two story home stood just days ago. An end of March court order provided that the couple must vacate the premises or face forcible removal. Still, until the very end, they were defiant and strong. Their final settlement reportedly included a similarly sized apartment in the building that will replace the chasm in which their “nail house” once stood. They sure had a great run at it, but in the end, the man gets everyone down!
