Default has 'Old shanghai' been completely swept away?

I've recently been hearing about what a fascinating place Shanghai was
before it became a '21st century cosmopolital city' (which presumably
means 'just like everywhere else'!) So I've apparently missed out on a
wonderful experience by not going there.

But is there much left of the old Shanghai?

Old as in pre-WWII? Not much left. The Bund is still there and probably
will remain, if nothing else, as a tourist attraction.
