How big the area of Woody Island now, after the reclamation?

Top view picture of Yongshu (Fiery Cross) Island taken around April last year before the start of reclamation.

There is a lighthouse on the top right corner.

The surrounding area would look very different today (but I don't have any updated pics).

2.6 from 2.1 sq km ... hmmm, is not that impressive ... I thought at least was double (e.g 5 sq km)

A bit of nostalgia. Pictures of Meiji (Mischief) Reef in the South location taken in April 2014.


Another view of the south location, I believe this was taken in 2013.


After the reclamation, it would look quite different.

If you have newer pictures, please post.
