The CCTV building came together today in the final installment of the almost impossible architectural design. The two towers are joined -- an incredible feat in engineering that sets China a part from any other country.
The joining, which occurred at dawn today, had to be scheduled precisely for weather and temperature issues. Any slight change could cause the entire building to collapse during the joining process.

Isn't it ironic that in a country that can build something so complicated, millions still live in caves.

Look at the final product! It looks like one of those impossible shape illusions you see on the internet every second day.
