China Hires Son of Hitler's Architect's for Olympic Job
Beijing signs up son of Hitler's architect
By Oliver August Choosing Albert Speer Jr to revamp China's capital for the Olympics has raised ghosts AN OLYMPIAN plan to revamp China’s capital with a 16-mile boulevard connecting the Olympic Park with the Forbidden City and Tiananmen Square has provoked a stormy public debate in Germany. The project, commissioned by Chinese officials ahead of the 2008 Olympics, has sparked controversy because the renowned urban planner whose design is being used is also the son of Hitler’s personal architect, Albert Speer. http://www.timesonline.co.uk/article...576789,00.html Couldn't find anyone else I guess. So, are you going? Should be quite a spectacle.
