After an official ground-breaking ceremony on July 14, the main islands in all four quadrants of RMB City completed terraformation (shaping of topography), and foundations were laid for key urban structures.

Now we are proud to announce the opening of the Preview Center, a specially-designed floating building, where the public can peer through the windows to view the ever-changing RMB City construction site beyond. Visitors may also learn more about the city through videos, photos, text, and even free gifts. Each week, a new construction-montage video will be added here, to give a “closer look” to the ongoing process.

To coincide with the opening of the Preview Center, the Serpentine Gallery in London launches its real-life (RL) presentation of the project in a dedicated gallery space on July 25.
