Here is another street corner that reflects some of the architectural history of Phnom Penh. On the corner are two one-story wooden houses that probably date back to the early 1900s. Then to the right of them is a green three-story concrete building that start replacing the wood buildings in the 1940s and 1950s. And finally, in the background, is a multi-story modern building going up, a product of the building craze that started around 2000.
