A catalyst for economic growth

An ambitious vision for the urban renewal of Dongsiwenli district in Jing'an, Shanghai, with the transformation of the Shimen 2nd Road-01 area into a dynamic new mixed-use district, is poised to redefine the city's landscape. The intent is for this project to serve as a catalyst for growth across the whole Suzhou River Bay area of Shanghai.

Innovative planning strategies

Through innovative planning and design strategies, our concept seamlessly blends tradition and modernity while fostering connectivity, vitality, and cultural richness. At its core, the plan prioritises the establishment of pedestrianised routes that integrate urban green spaces with historical landmarks and contemporary architecture.

Preservation of heritage buildings

Spanning a total area of 90 hectares, the plans include the preservation of approximately 60,000m2 of heritage buildings, including the most complete Shikumen style (a traditional Shanghainese architectural style combining Western and Chinese elements first appearing in the 1860s) complex in the city.

The project aims to create a hub for finance, art, culture, and innovation, breathing new life into the city centre district.
