This reminds me of the neon sign craze of the 50s. After the novelty wears off, it's garish. That neon was torn down in most places, thanks largely to better ideas around mixed use development where constant bright lights are a problem. People need places to feel part of society, and it's fun to visit, but living in a mall/amusement park/sports bar/Tron has negative health impacts with all the over stimulation. By now, high density, ecologically sensitive, mixed use cities that have a focus on overall quality of life, rather than dazzling, are more impressive. Chinese development can pull ahead there with a focus on transportation systems.
