Sin-Hsin Tsai Lueth and Allen Lueth write from their new home in Shanghai: “We recently transferred here after five years in Taipei. We have a dream apartment in our dream location at a reasonable price. It’s on a quiet tree-lined street in the old French Concession area, overlooking the yards of Sung Tse Wen. (Sung Tse Wen was the richest person in China, whose three sisters married Dr. Sun Yet- San, Chiang Kai Shek and Kong Xiang Xi, all the most powerful persons at beginning of the 20th century.) We have a panoramic Shanghai City view, all the way to the Pearl Tower in Pu Xi. If you’re making a personal or business trip to Shanghai, please look us up!”
