A motorway has been built around the block of flats after tenants refused to move.
Construction workers were ordered to squeeze the eight-lane motorway into four lanes, leaving the residents in the middle of the road.
'We don't exactly like being stuck out in the middle of a 60m-wide highway, but you get used to it,' said Shing Su, who lives in the block in Xi'an, central China. 'If they make a decent offer, most would move.'
The tenants only recently moved into the block, having been relocated to it after refusing to make way for a park in their former homes.
Negotiations with the council failed and so officials simply built a solution around the problem.
