IT Boom

It's no secret that India's Information Technology industry is booming- that's why we're here after all. Our hotel is located along the IT highway so I've been able to see several of the companies who have operations here in India. The buildings are all large and very nice looking, which is odd because they are in a sea of run-down buildings and piles of trash.

Here are some photos of the large office building where Brian is working. He works in the blue glass section that is finished and they are building a huge mass of steel and other buildings around it. We drove up on it and it really looks like a spaceship landed on Earth! Brian said that when it is complete, the building will house 25,000 workers.

One of his coworkers told me that when it is complete, the building will look like a butterfly from an aerial view. The big curved section you see is one of the wings. It was hard to capture in photos how massive this was, but it was an amazing sight to see.
