		<description><![CDATA[The aroma of wood smoke is not one of the things I expected to smell when I moved to a new apartment on the 35th floor, but there&#8217;s a rooftop barbecue restaurant just down the street from my building and the smell often floats upwards.

		<description><![CDATA[Two years ago, I spent a lot of time exploring the rooftop squatter villages that spread across the city like mushrooms on a tree stump. There&#8217;s an eerie feeling that comes over you as you walk through these settlements. Weeds poke through cracks in concrete walls; birds chirp and cicadas whir in the hot summer [...]]]></description>

Before I entered the shop, though, I gazed up the stairwell and wondered whether there was an interesting view from the roof. I climbed an extra few floors and emerged onto a [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Part of the brilliance of Alfred Hitchcock&#8217;s 1954 film Rear Window was the way it acknowledged voyeurism as part of urban life. In the city, we&#8217;re always being watched and we&#8217;re always watching others, be it on the street, from across a café or on the web, through street photography. I&#8217;d be lying if I [...]]]></description>

Compilation by Lee Chi-man The fact that a row of prewar shophouses still stands on Johnston Road suggests we&#8217;ve entered a new chapter in Hong Kong&#8217;s history of urban development. Originally housing the century-old Woo Cheong Pawn Shop and other neighbourhood businesses, the shophouses were bought by the Urban Renewal Authority [...]]]></description>

Potted plants sigh in the heavy heat of summer. Door gods peel from wooden entranceways. It is quiet.

None of the apartments have balconies; there is no club house or swimming pool; the only bit of shared space, beyond the dimly-lit concrete corridors, is the rooftop, which [...]]]></description>
