"Poetry and distance" is the yearning of many people, but in Yangpu, such a "longing for life" is not far away, and often happens at the doorstep.
The community planner "meticulously crafted", a new "self-reserved land" was born in the old community, which is not only a shared space for residents to share and exchange gardening, but also an autonomous stage to carry community memories and promote community integration and development......
The new practice of the people's city, 15 minutes in Yangpu, what kind of "poetry and distance" is "circled"?
The community planner "meticulously crafted", and a new "self-reserved land" was born in the old community
Lane 3061 of Yangshupu Road, built in the thirties of the last century, is "the place where he was born and raised" for resident Chen Jialin. In front of the Community Neighborhood Center, retro lattice floor tiles have replaced the original cement floor, and scattered potted plants are arranged in an orderly manner on wrought iron shelves, forming a "fragrant corner...... This is the new face of the community in the eyes of Chen Jialin and his old neighbors this spring.
If the architecture is about age, then the old-fashioned garden house in Lane 3061 of Yangshupu Road has reached the age of mackerel. Recently, the new project of the community planner of Dinghai Road Street has made this "mackerel-backed old man" more and more "childish".
"After the design and renovation of drainage ditches and street corner greening, it not only has the role of rain garden water storage, but also can channel drainage ......," Xiong Yu, a member of Dai Daixin's studio, an associate professor at the School of Architecture and Urban Planning of Tongji University, is introducing to reporters the "Civic Horticulture Center" that has just landed in Lane 3061 of Yangshupu Road. Xiong Yu told reporters that the community planner team wants to radiate the concept of zero waste and sustainable development to the entire community through such a small "point".
To create a livable community, it always revolves around the needs of residents, and everyone's participation is the key word. This horticultural center, from planning, design to implementation, and project implementation...... The whole process is based on the wishes and ideas of the community.
The reporter noticed that a large number of "blank spaces" were set up in the "healing corridor" and "healing vegetable garden" areas, and there were only wrought iron flower climbing frames and small wooden stakes on site. "These 'blanks' are left for residents to fill in the blanks. In addition to planting flowers and plants, activities such as popular science lectures, small markets, and exchange of love items can also be carried out, so that residents can give full play to their creativity and tap the potential of 'blank space', which can also be regarded as a topic of social innovation. Xiao Yijie, a member of Dai Daixin's studio, said.
In Chen Jialin's mouth, this used to be a corner of the community that was "ignored", "just an inconspicuous small place, but when you use it, it's different." "Different", in addition to the overall look of the new look, but also the core of the new look. The "Citizen Horticulture Center" is not only a place for residents to share and exchange gardening, but also an autonomous stage that carries community memories and promotes community integration and development.
Qian Fang, secretary of the general party branch of the second residential area of 17 cotton, said frankly: "In fact, before the start of the horticultural center, some residents were not optimistic, and they did not understand why they spent so much effort to remediate this 'leftover'. Now, the grapes planted by the residents have grown leaves, and there are green leafy vegetables such as spinach underneath...... Seeing is believing, and many people are surprised when they see the new look now, saying that this passage makes people feel very comfortable. ”
Changing the old to the new is a process of slowly getting better, and in this process, the residents' sense of gain and happiness can be continuously improved. "With graffiti, it's even more pleasing to the eye to add a little bit of flora. One year to learn to plant flowers, three years to learn to water, planting is very particular. In the early stage, the team from Tongji University also came to give us a class, which was very rich in content and learned a lot. Chen Jialin said.
Spring ploughing and autumn harvest, in Yangpu, the scenery of the "15-minute community life circle" will become more and more pleasant, and more and more residents will usher in the joy of harvest in their "own back garden".
"Mother's story" has been passed on by word of mouth, and the seeds of a better life have taken root in the hearts of more and more children
Not long ago, Qiu Ling, the "golden collar" of the financial industry and the mother of the second baby, "debuted" in the Changhai Road community with a "new identity" - the head of the "Super Mother Group" of Xiangge Liyuan. In the process of reading picture books and planning activities for the children, she deeply realized that "community autonomy nurtures both sides." I have brought happiness to the families in the community, and my two children have also gained a boost to grow up, become more integrated into society, and be more cheerful. ”
Similar to Qiu Ling's experience, Zhai Yi, chairman of Shanghai Yangpu Haiya Family Education Service Center (hereinafter referred to as "Haiya"), is also engaged in the financial industry. Among them, "Story Mother" has formed a brand benefit, which has broken out of Yangpu and "blossomed" in the city.
Zhai Yi still remembers that many years ago, she chatted with her neighbors and found a common problem - there was a "gap period" between the children's release and the parents' return home, which was very "difficult" for the children. Enthusiastic, she suggested that the children could be gathered in the community neighborhood center, and the teachers could take the group to do activities, and the families could share the cost. As for safety, they can have parent volunteers present every day to fill the two hours after school for the children.
In 2017, Zhai Yi and several mothers in the community established a self-governing community to carry out activities such as English story telling and picture books every day. The community is very popular with families in the community, and not only has the number of children participating increased from a few to dozens, but also the number of parent volunteers has increased, and the team has grown more and more.
So, Zhai Yi decided to start a social organization to contribute to the public welfare of the community. With the joint care and support of the District Civil Affairs Bureau and the District Women's Federation, the prototype of Haiya was born. In the process of doing public welfare, Zhai Yi learned that social organizations can also undertake public welfare projects. The "Public Welfare Mothers Alliance" project cultivated and created by the Yangpu District Women's Federation originated from this.
In the "Public Welfare Mothers Alliance", "Story Mother", which can be said to be the "leading" team cultivated by Haiya from scratch, was formed in 2019 and currently has more than 60 members, from all walks of life.
In 2023, with the co-funding of the Yangpu District Public Welfare Venture Capital Competition and Yanji Xincun Street, Haiya's "Little Green Practitioners" project will give "coffee grounds" a new lease of life and guide parent-child families to devote themselves to green practices.
The children come to the coffee shop in front of their homes to collect coffee grounds, dry them at home, make them into colorful sachets, and hang them in the community neighborhood center, which has the effect of preventing moisture and removing odor. On weekends, Haiya also carried out activities such as "coffee grounds" sand painting creation and book rafting, encouraging children to lead their families and become communicators and practitioners of green life. "Child-friendliness, in addition to the continuous improvement of hardware and software, should also stimulate children's enthusiasm to participate in community governance. Zhai Yi said.
Story Moms are not limited to Yangpu and volunteer to many communities across the city. "Story Moms" do more than just picture books, they closely combine stories with the life practice of civilized cities, and spread the concepts of civilized pet raising and low-carbon emission reduction to children.
Zhai Yi said: "In 2024, I hope that more children will participate in community public welfare services, and the seeds of 'sharing, co-creating and building a better life together' will take root in the hearts of more children, so that green life and the concept of 'child-friendly' can go both ways." ”
"There is a football field downstairs of the company", and all kinds of sports and leisure places are distributed in all corners of the park, and you can make an appointment "a little bit".
Fang Yi, a white-collar worker in Yangpu Park, a treasure land of interconnection, is a football enthusiast, and the 5-a-side football field in the park converted from a sunken square lawn is very popular with Fang Yi. "In the past, we played football less often, once every two weeks, but now we have a football field downstairs, so we basically play once a week. Fang Yi said.
This year, Yangpu Park launched a new sports venue reservation service. Open the park mini program, users can make an appointment, and the first registration and reservation can be free of charge.
Jiang Xiajun, the person in charge of Yangpu Park (business), introduced that in addition to the football field, Yangpu Park is currently equipped with outdoor basketball courts, table tennis halls, etc., which are open to the public for free, as well as badminton halls, paddle tennis courts, gyms, escape rooms and other leisure and entertainment venues, which are distributed in all corners of the park.
Shao Yun, a white-collar worker in the park, was a member of the school's women's football team when she was in college, and still maintains the habit of playing football, "This sport allows me to relax and relieve stress after being busy, and then better devote myself to work." ”
It is reported that this year, Yangpu Park, a treasure land of the Internet, also plans to introduce fresh markets, livehouses, art exhibitions, etc., to meet the needs of citizens for catering and entertainment, and use the existing sports venues to hold various sports events, and invite employees and citizens who love sports to participate for free.
