Beijing Then and Now: Steven Schwankert

For our October Issue, we invited local personalities to recreate photographs that inspired fond memories. Here are the stories behind those snapshots and those Beijingers, in their own words.

Steven Schwankert, Blue Zoo, 2011

What has changed for you? We're creeping towards our own 10th anniversary in just over a year.

What has changed in the city? What hasn't changed? The biggest difference is that unlike eight years ago, there are a ton of divers in Beijing now.

Anything else you'd like to add? Congratulations to the Beijinger on ten years.
