Wusong Industrial Estate Master Plan & Urban Design

The last remaining sizeable area for redevelopment, the master plan envisions a rejuvenation of this industrial estate into a thriving business district with two residential towns.

An extensive green network is proposed, together with a revitalisation of the waterfront and an introduction of pedestrian-friendly networks.

The major challenge was revitalising the district while retaining elements of its industrial identity.

Industrial buildings and key historical landmarks were handpicked for conservation and reuse.

The plans also focused on strengthening the district’s connectivity with Shanghai downtown and complementing the Shanghai Free Trade Zone.
