Unfortunately someone got very censor happy with that picture, all the interesting bits have been pixelated.

The way i see it, theres not much (nothing) new in this image from the last photo from July 20. Its just 9 days difference.

The basin looks to be filled up. To think this entire area used to be farmland.

That COSCO container ship is huge, has to be a ULVC. Definitely 400 meters long, container ships are not allowed to grow any further. Likely to be a 21,000 TEU, or 210,000+ GT, and a member of the batch or class with COSCO Universe. Using it as a reference, a carrier may only be 3/4ths of it.

There is so much building material around the roadsides, the construction site urgently needs to be expanded.

Gotta say the work on the basin is going on pretty smoothly, here'a couple of photos as a general idea.

Curiously lining them up they could hypothetically stack 3 carrier buildings one next to another, or use the space to refit 2 carriers simultaneously, definitely interesting.
