This year, Shanghai will fully complete the renovation of old houses below the second grade in the central urban area. When the "transformation of old areas" with the main theme of "large-scale demolition and construction" is about to enter history, the concept of urban construction is also facing a new upgrade. In September last year, the Shanghai Urban Renewal Regulations were officially promulgated and implemented, drawing a blueprint for the future development model of Shencheng. So, from "old reform" to "urban renewal", how to plan the future of urban public space? How to position the new relationship between "people and the city"? We may wish to go to Yangpu, which was once the "old reform area", to explore the new momentum of urban development.

On the last day of 2021, the largest urban renewal and demolition project in Yangpu District was officially launched. If all goes well, then this New Year of the Tiger is the last Spring Festival spent by 1,791 residents living in a village in Fengnan in the old house.

This is also the first urban renewal project handled by Wu Zhen, a seven-year "veteran of the old reform". After the transformation of a piece of old li below the second level in Yangpu District was fully completed, he did not stop and threw himself into the situation survey of the "Demolition and Reconstruction of a Village in Fengnan".

Although the work done is all the residents' contract work, but the role positioning is very different, Wu Zhen frankly said, from the "old uncle" to the "designer" change: "The old reform is only in accordance with the policy to demolish the residents' houses, demolition and reconstruction to relocate the residents on the basis of the original, so we think the burden on our shoulders is heavier." ”

Behind the transformation of the old reform veterans, it is also the result of the shift of urban development from incremental construction to stock renewal.

On September 1 last year, the "Shanghai Urban Renewal Regulations" were officially implemented, and for the first time, it was clarified from the legislative level: the city's urban renewal, adhere to the "retention, reform and demolition" at the same time, mainly to protect and retain. Among them, the proportion of demolition and reconstruction and complete set of renovation projects needs to reach more than 95%, which is an increase of 10 percentage points compared with the 85% of the old reform levy.

For a demolition and reconstruction project, leaving a "nail household" may delay the time for more residents to move back in situ.

There is no mature experience to follow, only to do the "homework" in front. The "joint working group" composed of streets, contracting units, neighborhood committees, properties, design units, public security, etc., works on the spot every day, combs through the situation of each household one by one, and works together to tackle "difficult and complicated diseases".

Wu Zhen, who is responsible for docking hundreds of residents, also took advantage of a round of plan consultation, combined with the needs of residents to hand-draw a number of room types, the details of each part are not left behind, he said, just like his own house, he is satisfied, residents can be satisfied.

On the one hand, there are the old reform managers who are "busy with transformation", and on the other hand, they have been handing over the old reform plots, but they are not in a hurry to "change".

I can't count how many times the landscape assessment team has ventured into the southern section of the Yangpu Riverside. Yangpu Binjiang was once the birthplace of modern industry, and Yangshupu Road, the "South Factory north residence", once gathered 85% of the old houses in the area. Since 2016, the screening team has "read the literature + on-site exploration" and collected all 35 neighborhoods and all "over 50 years old" houses in an area of 4.8 square kilometers. From "demolition, reform and retention" to "retention and demolition", with the continuous enrichment of the assessment and screening report, the regional control and detailed planning has also been adjusted several times in the past few years, and the latest version of the style protection plan released has just ended online publicity in the middle of last month.

Adjacent to the ruins of the century-old Yangshupu Road, the seven gatehouse arches "collected" from a number of old land plots are wrapped in steel bars and lined up, and in the future, they will become a necessary element in the protection and development of the region, dressing up the "first façade" of the area.

The evaluation team is responsible for "retaining nostalgia", while the task of the team of community planners is how to outline the urban space of the old and new from the needs of "people".

"A block should not only keep good buildings, but also have good stories and good fireworks," Chen Yong, a "community planner" in Daqiao Street, Yangpu District, and a professor at the School of Architecture and Urban Planning of Tongji University, told the reporter, "We must consider the current crowd and the future crowd, how to use it." To this end, we will do more research, reflect these to the street neighborhood committee, but also fully communicate with some functional departments in the hope that this side can reproduce the process of rebuilding a new home. ”

According to the plan, in the future, the southern section of Yangpu Binjiang will form two concentrated areas based on the style of Lilong in Badaitou and The East of the Bridge, forming a multiple activation and utilization model.

Bidding farewell to large-scale demolition and construction, the pursuit of organic growth and urban renewal are reshaping the relationship between "people" and "cities".

In the past thirty years, it is precisely the breakthroughs in reform that dare to be the first, and the continuous efforts of generations of people, which have changed a new world and a happy new life for the people. This is the largest people's livelihood project, the people's heart project, and the most vivid practice of the important concept of "people's city".
