18 JULY 2017 - BANGKOK, THAILAND: Soi 27 off of Sathu Pradit in Bangkok was a working class neighborhood of two storey shophouses. Most of the homes in the were occupied by Thais of Chinese heritage. The owner of the land sold the land to a developer who plans to build a condominium tower on the site. The residents left in early July and the shophouses will be torn down in coming weeks.
