The closer I get, the worse it becomes
We are good at justifying the unavoidable, things like epidemics that rampaged through England's early urban centers. In the case of Tuberculosis, the justification was both aesthetic, and disturbingly sexual. Even the uninfected would mimic the sexy consequences of mycobacteria infection with white makeup.
A quick and dirty cultural history might locate 'Tuberculosis chic' as the beginnings of the modern goth aesthetic.
That's something you can't un-remember the next time you come across a strident layer of foundation makeup.

Also, the once-proud Chung Road is now through something we can call differential road growth, a small alley (same date span as previous post). There's a bad dissertation waiting there. Get your ethnographic history on.
Yesterday I took an anxious day off from research. It made sense that, since I haven't worked on Hankou [Hankow] -- present-day Wuhan -- since 2003 or so, it wasn't really work.
The PRC recently legalized horse racing and thus gambling, but haven't mentioned the historical precedents too specifically -- probably because, under the communists, there was no gambling.So there were two racetracks for betting on horse races at the end of the Qing Dynasty (1644-1911). One for foreigners, located near the foreign concessions and with cricket, golf, and friendly military bases; another for Chinese, to the northwest of the city. There's your historical precedent... I used maps from from 1914, 1945 -- both which indicate the Chinese track -- and Google Earth, to see if there are any remnants of the track. I got relative location by linking a small set of roads that exist in the three time periods. Much like other dense urban centers, using water bodies is no good; they appear and disappear more than roads do. There's rich historical work on Hankou, mostly because of the active role that merchants took in local politics (see: William T Rowe). Not much on the horse racing, though. And there's no evidence of it in the geography. Based on the 1914 and 1945 maps, some northern part of the racecourse should be close to covering a point 2.1km directly east of the intersection of Xin [Hsin] Seng Lu [Rd.] and the Peking-Hankow [Beijing-Hankou] railway (now a rapid transit line). They're replaced it with universities, those communists.
