http://www.chinaeconomicreview.com/property/2006/11/17/shanghai-sales-sag-government-blamed/ The article mentions 2 properties that are river front. ( I assume they are referring to pengli and tomson) However, even Shanghai locals don't know about a new project that has just been completed. It's probably shanghai's most luxurious project, and it has actually all been sold (compared to skyline), except for maybe a few that have their river view blocked. The name is called Cai Fu Hai Jing Hua Yuan. It's also located right on the river and the prices start at 50,000 rmb per sqm and shoots up and some larger units range up to $7Million USD. The sizes range from 300-1000sqm. Half of Tomson's price but tomson is fluff and overrated anyways. It just finished construction and has a public park along the river. The exact location is right next to the coal mounds which is also rumored (now a fact) to be bought by hk's billionaire Li, who is planning to build a office/shopping complex. CaiFu is located right next to the international offices that look out of place because it's the only group of non high rise offices on the river. It's kept secret because rumor has it, it's full of high profile residents such as jiangzhemin's son, jacky cheung hk's famous singer in the 90s, and many others. Not advertised at all but when you pass by at night you will see the lobby and it should make you turn your head twice. It also may show that people don't like publicity as I'm sure there are more than enough people in this international city who can afford the sky high prices.

Do you know Tomson's golf course houses in Pudong, selling more $ per square meter than San Francisco, have no garages? I guess all the expensive fancy cars would have to be parked outside under the carports, so the chauffeurs can polish them in their spare time.

Shanghaiist: Boardwalk ... Park Place ... Tomson Riviera
