My Neighbors

I have been locked in my apartment during Eid working on a paper. While unexpected, living in a construction site like International City reveals really interesting living patterns of the workers here. It's almost eerie the way you rarely see any workers during the day (they are all disguised by buildings in progress like the one featured here). Then at night, the round-abouts and public areas are totally jammed with workers socializing and possibly sleeping. Seeing these nighttime gatherings has become one of the nicest parts of living here. I guess it is International City's version of "street life."
