I found the trip to the northeastern terminus of Line 6 to be particularly poignant. Until the planned extension connects under the Huangpi River with the Line 8, Line 6 ends in the North Waigaoqiao Free Trade Zone. A few stops shy of this is the South Waigaoqiao Free Trade Zone where ODW’s datacenter resides. Back in September of 2013 — on my first visit to Shanghai — I spent a day working out of the datacenter and remember it vividly. So much water under the “qiao” since then.
Line 6 ends surrounded by lots holding shipping containers stacked eight high.
Here’s Line 6 curving away into the distance to its eventual connection with Line 8.
