Results showed that, the urban/built-up area grew on average by 4,242.06 ha yr−1. Bare land grew by 1,594.66 ha yr−1 on average. In contrast, cropland decreased by 3,286.26 ha yr−1 on average, followed by forest and shrub, water, and tidal land, which decreased by 1,331.33 ha yr−1, 903.43 ha yr−1, and 315.72 ha yr−1 on average, respectively. As a result, during 1979 and 2008 approximately 83.83% of the newly urban/built-up land was converted from cropland (67.35%), forest and shrub (9.12%), water (4.80%), and tidal land (2.19%).

  • Dilemma Between Density and Quality: the Demographic History of Sinan Road Area
    The 18th International Planning History Society Conference - Yokohama, July 2018 Dilemma Between Density and Quality: The Demographic History of Sinan Road Area Zhu Kaiyi * * PhD Candidate, Department of Architecture, [email protected] This paper investigates the unique urban planning history and demographic changes in Sinan Road (also named as Rue Massenet) Area of Shanghai and the socioeconomic impacts on local inhabitants’ living quality led by formal and informal planning dynamics. Examining both tangible and intangible characteristics of this area under five different historical phases, this paper indicates that population density and urban quality cannot always be positively or negatively related. Urban quality can reach the maximum value when area population of concentrated density stays in an ideal state, although, as a result of the qualitative variates, such state (peak value) is in suspense. Through analysing the overarching strategic plan of different periods, it also argues that urban quality is not merely dominated by or directly related to density but more by the population’s social demands and their initial interaction with a specific area, active or passive involvement. Keywords: population density, Sinan Road area, historic district, social demands, urban transformation, living quality Introduction The saturation of urban construction in contemporary Chinese metropolises has forced planners to face the inevitable strategy of optimizing housing stock. As a city where urban heritage practices happen frequently, municipal construction and housing departments of Shanghai jointly issued a series of implementation opinions in 1999, to improve and monitor pilot preservation and reconstruction projects of historic buildings and blocks of this city. This turning point has brought a more comprehensive platform of expression in the context of market economy, while enabling multiple values of urban heritage to be fully discovered by varied stakeholders in a new era.

The report describes important characteristics the colleges seek to impart including: open access, community orientation, adaptability to changing societal and educational needs, and cooperation with four-year institutions. The institutions originated from different efforts, and Changning and Luwan Community Colleges and the College of Continuous Education are highlighted to show the various origins. Some colleges were established by neighborhoods, others by the government, and still others are the result of merging previous adult education institutions together. While the reasons and purposes for these colleges are real and defined, the community colleges in Shanghai face financial, curricular, and administrative challenges. The report specifies a lack of certificate and transfer policy, inadequate funding, low name recognition, and a poor level and quality of education as current problems.

  • Preservation of Lilong Neighborhoods in Shanghai
    PRESERVATION OF LILONG NEIGHBORHOODS IN SHANGHAI: SOCIAL CHANGE AND SPATIAL RIGHTS A Thesis Presented to the Faculty of the Graduate School of Cornell University In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Master of Arts in Historic Preservation Planning by Ran Yan August 2013 © 2013 Ran Yan ALL RIGHTS RESERVED ABSTRACT As once the most common form of dwelling in Shanghai, the Lilong has played a vital role in Shanghai’s local culture. Gradually declining in number during the second half of the 20th century, it is now faced with a challenging and undecided future. This thesis aims to further the discussion of the preservation of Lilong neighborhoods in its fundamental relation with people and basic social context. Four case studies, Tian Zi Fang, Jian Ye Li, Jing An Bie Shu and Bu Gao Li, are used to add some realistic, specific details and to deepen the reflection on this topic. Each of the cases has its special architectural features, residential composition, history, and current problems all of which provide some insight into the uniqueness and individuality of every Lilong neighborhood. In the end recommendations are made to address to Lilong residents’ right and to call for an equal way of Lilong preservation as a means to a better living environment for everyone and a more equitable society. BIOGRAPHICAL SKETCH Ran Yan was born on August 9th, 1988 in Beijing, China, where she grew up and finished her early education. In 2011 she received her Bachelor of Engineering degree in Historic Preservation from Tongji University, in Shanghai. With a background in both architecture and historic preservation, she continued on to graduate study in the Historic Preservation Planning program at the City and Regional Planning Department of Cornell University.

As one of the world’s financial capitals, Shanghai seems to follow similar market cycles of boom and bust. This year’s World Expo has seen the city of 22 million undergo a major rejuvenation, and Shanghai’s fortune is undeniably on the rise. The historic Bund, the epicentre of the city’s original boom at the turn of the 20th century, has been transformed into a pedestrian boulevard, facing the futuristic towers of Pudong on the other side of the Huangpu river. New hotels, dining and shopping precincts are cropping up all the time, but there’s also plenty of charm – and a whole world of dumplings – to be found by wandering through the traditional laneways of the city’s older districts. Shanghai’s thriving fashion, art and restaurant scenes are now compared to New York or London, fuelled by the steady flow of expats keen to make their mark on the Pearl of the Orient.

  • Shanghai: City for Sale": Part II
    "Shanghai: City for Sale" Part II "Construction Fever" and "Relocationphobia" of Urban Residents BY CHENG LI SHANGHAI, China August 1995 The on-going large-scale urban construction and land leasing in Shanghai, as discussed in the first part of this series, usually do not bring good fortune to the residents of the city. Instead, the govern- ment policy regarding the relocation of downtown households has caused great anguish among Shanghai citizens. "All the government wants is money; it has no shame," a local res- ident told a foreign journalist reporting a street protest against the demolition of an old city neighborhood.1 The protest occurred in the spring of this year. Hundreds of protesters blocked Huaihai Road, the second largest commercial street in the city, to voice their anger and frustration about the ruthless way that the local government had handled the matter. Residents in the area were told by local officials that they had to move out of their apartments by the beginning of the summer to make way for a commercial development. The local government gave residents in the old neighborhood only two choices of new resi- dential areas into which they could move. Both were located in bleak suburbs where there were no hospitals, no schools, no vegetable or grocery markets. In addition, residents had to pay a large amount of money to the government if they wanted more space in their new homes. The relocation of residents along Huaihai Road is only one of many relocation projects in this construction-crazy city. Property de- velopment is so frantic in Shanghai, as someone described it, that residents are afraid of returning home after work "lest they find the dreaded relocation notice nailed to their doors."2 Government statistics show that about 200,000 households have been resettled over the past several years.3 According to the govern- ment plan, another 200,000 households will have to go within a few more years.

  • Globalization and Emerging Office and Commercial Landscapes in Shanghai1
    GLOBALIZATION AND EMERGING OFFICE AND COMMERCIAL LANDSCAPES IN SHANGHAI1 Jiaping Wu2 School of Humanities and Communication Central Queensland University Rockhampton, Australia Abstract: Office and commercial infrastructure in urban China largely disappeared during the period of central planning between 1949 and 1978. The role of downtown areas in China’s cities, however, has been reinvented as a result of China’s global integration. In Shanghai, com- prehensive planning efforts were made for the renovation of the CBD and the restructuring of the inner city. This article examines the emergence of office and commercial landscapes by linking planning implementation to broad market transition. It argues that the emergence of office and commercial centers in Shanghai can be viewed as the result of market forces as well as discre- tionary implementation of city comprehensive plans by local governments in the inner city—in response to global integration on the one hand and investor interests on the other. [Key words: globalization, urban planning, office and commercial space, Shanghai.] INTRODUCTION After many years of relative decline as a result of the boom in private car use, the cen- tral areas of cities have undergone a renaissance since the 1990s. Re-centralization has occurred throughout the world, in part due to economic globalization. The location of “key command and control functions” (Sassen, 1996a) and other producer services assigned to cities in the new international division of labor (Friedmann, 1986) have tended to be disproportionately concentrated in central business districts (CBD) of cities (Moulaert et al, 1996; Borja and Castells, 1997). This has created a new sectoral mix within the city’s economic base and new patterns of service production and consumption as demonstrated by the emergence of high-rise office complexes, secondary business centers, specialized service clusters, and new retail landscapes (Marcuse and van Kempen, 2000).
