With the rapid development of cities and the increasing scarcity of land resources, urban layout and functions are facing the need for readjustment.

In 2020, "urban renewal" was written into the five-year plan for national economic and social development for the first time; in 2021, "urban renewal" became the focus of attention of the two sessions. "Implementing urban renewal actions to promote the optimization and quality improvement of urban spatial structure" has become an important issue that cities must face in the future.

So, what kind of urban renewal is good urban renewal? Guangzhou is a good answer, but also a different answer!

Inside and outside, miracle sheep city

Guangzhou, also known as Yangcheng, Flower City. It is bordered by the South China Sea and meets three rivers. With more than 2,200 years of city history and unique location advantages, Guangzhou has accumulated a series of eye-catching labels such as the birthplace of Cantonese culture, the thousand-year-old commercial capital, and the starting point of the Maritime Silk Road.

Guangzhou, the starting point of the Maritime Silk Road

More than 40 years of reform and opening up, the thousand-year-old city of Guangzhou has now become a modern international city. Zhujiang New Town, Yongqingfang and other city image synonyms continue to pour out. And these "synonyms" are all miracles created by Guangzhou in the transformation and reconstruction over the years!

Guangzhou urban renewal representative area - Zhujiang New Town

The success of Guangzhou's urban renewal is not a simple spatial reshaping, behind which it is inseparable from the internal and external repair of "Cantonese" renewal - internal: flexible innovation of mechanism and model, so that urban renewal is "not simple"; outside: starting from the city's own temperament, making urban renewal "different"!

As the forefront of reform and opening up, Guangzhou's innovative exploration of urban renewal has also been at the forefront of the country. It is one of the earliest and most active cities in China to carry out urban renewal.

Guangzhou urban renewal representative area - Beijing Road History and Culture Street

Since the beginning of the new century, Guangzhou's urban renewal has roughly gone through three stages of representation.

01

Promote synergy with the benefits and open the curtain of updating

2000-2008

At the beginning of the 21st century, Guangzhou's urbanization developed rapidly, and the population began to pour in, and it was highly concentrated in the central urban area. In order to enhance the energy level and vitality of the old urban area, Guangzhou has carried out the crisis reform project guided by the transformation of dangerous houses and the improvement of urban villages.

Guangzhou urban renewal, you deserve it! Yongqingfang, T.I.T Creative Park, Swire Cangchang...

Liede Village

During this period, the government took "who benefits, who invests" as the principle of financing for transformation, and innovatively proposed "government-led, open and introduced social funds", which effectively drove village collectives and market forces to contribute funds and avoid the government from fighting alone.

02

Focus on the transformation of the three old and start policy experiments

2009-2015

The development model of demolition and construction and development of incremental land is not a long-term solution, and in order to improve the efficiency of the use of inefficient stock land, Guangzhou has carried out renovation experiments for the three old (old villages, old factories, and old towns).

Guangzhou urban renewal, you deserve it! Yongqingfang, T.I.T Creative Park, Swire Cangchang...

T.I.T Creative Park

In 2009, it took the lead in promulgating relevant policy documents in the country and established the Three Old Renovation Offices.

Guangzhou urban renewal, you deserve it! Yongqingfang, T.I.T Creative Park, Swire Cangchang...

A large number of industrial sites such as Yangcheng Creative Industry Park have explored revitalization and utilization

During this period, the government gave up part of the land transfer proceeds to the owners and the market to break the dilemma of the lack of motivation of the right subjects for land redevelopment, in exchange for the positive response of the market entities and owners. Guangzhou's practice during this period not only laid a good foundation for Guangzhou to enter systematic urban renewal, but also provided a rich experience reference for the subsequent national transformation of land use patterns and the promotion of urban renewal policy innovation.

Guangzhou urban renewal, you deserve it! Yongqingfang, T.I.T Creative Park, Swire Cangchang...

In the process of exploration, Yangcheng Creative Industry Park actively promotes the integration of culture and science and technology, attracting more than 100 related enterprises such as Lychee to settle in

03

Micro-transformation is coming, opening up the city's cultural magnetism

Since 2015

(1). Create an exclusive organization to strengthen top-level co-ordination

The "three olds" transformation has opened up the situation of "comprehensive transformation" in Guangzhou, but the "three olds" lack integrity under the guidance of their respective policies. In 2015, in the face of practical problems such as the basic convergence of transformation methods and the relatively single effect, Guangzhou established the first "Urban Renewal Bureau" in China to coordinate urban renewal work with reference to the practice of the Hong Kong and Singapore Urban Renewal Specialized Agencies - the Reconstruction Bureau.

Guangzhou urban renewal, you deserve it! Yongqingfang, T.I.T Creative Park, Swire Cangchang...

Innovate institutional mechanisms and establish urban renewal bureaus

(2). Create and update methods, functional activation and transformation

Demolition and construction are by no means the only strategy for urban renewal. In 2016, Guangzhou for the first time proposed an update method that is equally important as "comprehensive transformation" - micro-transformation: to maintain the existing construction pattern basically unchanged, with partial demolition, repair and upgrading, and functional replacement as the focus to enhance the flexibility of urban renewal.

Guangzhou urban renewal, you deserve it! Yongqingfang, T.I.T Creative Park, Swire Cangchang...

Guangzhou's urban renewal implementation methods are divided into two categories: comprehensive transformation and micro-transformation

(3). Create and promote the PPP model and promote the implementation

In order to solve the problems of conflicting interests of multiple entities and difficulty in raising funds, Guangzhou has launched a series of policies such as plot rate incentives and assistance loans, and established the Guangzhou Urban Renewal Fund, focusing on supporting urban renewal projects in the PPP model, and promoting the implementation of urban renewal measures in a multi-pronged manner.

Guangzhou urban renewal, you deserve it! Yongqingfang, T.I.T Creative Park, Swire Cangchang...

The PPP model of government co-ordination and cooperation with private capital

In the drastic urban renewal, in addition to the hard-core policies and flexible mechanisms that are constantly innovating, the "all kinds of care" for the "local area" is the soul of Guangzhou's urban renewal characteristics!

The same is the coastal open highland, the same in the forefront of urban innovation, Guangzhou, Shenzhen, Shanghai, is the three protagonists of urban renewal perennial frame. Different from Shanghai's international trend, Shenzhen's youth is exciting, and Guangzhou's urban renewal is outstanding, starting from the "city's own temperament", revealing a strong cultural flavor, human touch and life flavor.

After the renovation of Tianhuan Plaza - in addition to business, there is more life

This is inseparable from the protection of the thick history, the inheritance of characteristic culture, the continuation of urban genes, and the integration of people's livelihood needs in their bones. These are the connotations of urban renewal needed in today's era, and they are also the irreplaceable "taste" and significance of Guangzhou for urban renewal! Here, we may wish to cut through the three representative stages of Guangzhou's urban renewal and reveal the unique "taste of Guangzhou" with representative projects.

Former "Handshake Building", today's "Landmark Area"

- Liede Village

When it comes to the transformation of urban villages, we cannot but say Thate Village. Liede Village is adjacent to the Pearl River and only 1 km from Huacheng Square. It is the first comprehensive urban village in Guangzhou and a landmark area famous throughout the country.

Guangzhou urban renewal, you deserve it! Yongqingfang, T.I.T Creative Park, Swire Cangchang...

The scope of the renovation of Liede Village

In 2007, there were villages in the city, there were cities in the villages, the outside of the village was modernized, and the dirty and chaotic inside the village was still the scene here. With the release of the Zhujiang New Town plan, The Liede Village, which cannot fulfill the location value, has started the transformation. In 2010, the villagers moved back.

Guangzhou urban renewal, you deserve it! Yongqingfang, T.I.T Creative Park, Swire Cangchang...

The iconic arch of Liede

Nowadays, there are not only small bridges and flowing water, but also high-rise buildings, from the dirty and messy representatives of urban villages to the amazing model of transformation, Guangzhou has spent a lot of thought on this.

Guangzhou urban renewal, you deserve it! Yongqingfang, T.I.T Creative Park, Swire Cangchang...

Today's Hunter

(1). "Government-enterprise-village" win-win cooperation will maximize the interests of villagers

In the transformation of urban villages, often the most difficult thing to solve is to balance the needs of villagers and where the money comes from. As mentioned above, Guangzhou's innovative attempts to introduce social capital during this period were "developers advancing funds, government policies, and village committee assistance", which was Liede's choice. In addition to the resettlement area, Liede also set aside collective economy and auction financing plots, which not only harvested the participation of powerful enterprises in the transformation, but also used the auction funds as transformation funds. While solving the requirements of villagers' demolition and resettlement and collective property development, it has achieved the economic balance of the project itself.

Development and construction of office buildings, hotels

(2) The people need to be supreme: they must have both ecology and life

With a history of more than 900 years, a large number of ancient houses, ancestral halls and the inheritance of Liede Chung make it a very culturally iconic water village in Guangzhou. In this regard, From the two aspects of ecology and life, Liede has reproduced the scene of The Hunter people living by the water to the greatest extent.

Guangzhou urban renewal, you deserve it! Yongqingfang, T.I.T Creative Park, Swire Cangchang...

Village memories such as ancestral halls preserved by Liede

Ecology is the foundation, but also green for the people

Liede Village has been born with water since ancient times, and "water" refers to Liede Chung. Liede pays attention to the preservation of the original ecological texture of the water town, and designs the water town landscape restoration area with a large area and high quality:

Guangzhou urban renewal, you deserve it! Yongqingfang, T.I.T Creative Park, Swire Cangchang...

Hunter Chung Bi Dao

With The wide water surface of Liedeyong as the main body, the traditional Lingnan water town landscape cultural elements are taken from the materials, and the landscape elements such as bluestone slab roads, covered bridges, embankment railings, and landscape flower ponds are used as the carriers, and a waterfront green road that highlights the style of Hunting Virtue and creates a traditional water town in Lingnan is constructed.

Guangzhou urban renewal, you deserve it! Yongqingfang, T.I.T Creative Park, Swire Cangchang...

Elements such as the stage are integrated into the landscape nodes and evoke people's memories of Gu lied

People-oriented, return the city to the people

Houses can be demolished, but cultural and life imprints cannot be demolished. From architecture to public spaces to public activities, Liede Village fully respects the needs of people's livelihood: with the Dragon Mother Temple as the center, the ancestral hall, family school and other valuable houses will be restored and repaired along the riverbank;

Guangzhou urban renewal, you deserve it! Yongqingfang, T.I.T Creative Park, Swire Cangchang...

The ancestral hall that carries the history of the Liede clan

Traditional cultural elements such as the awakening lion and the dragon boat are integrated into the landscape design, together with cultural monuments, plaque stone carvings, etc., forming a "historical and cultural corridor"; and widening the dragon boat pond to continue the centuries-old hunting dragon boat customs.

Liede Historical and Cultural Corridor

(3). It is necessary not only to inherit culture, but also to advance with "people"

The collective economy and auction financing plots were auctioned by R&F, KWG Pacific And Sun Hung Kai at that time. Different from the simple reversal, the enterprise fully considered the cultural continuation in the transformation process: the representative of the Cantonese houses, "Wok Ear House", with the water town texture as the base, created a Lingnan style commercial street - Tiande Street.

Guangzhou urban renewal, you deserve it! Yongqingfang, T.I.T Creative Park, Swire Cangchang...

Tiande Street

In addition to externalizing traditional culture into shapes, it also pays more attention to linking the "inner" with the new era crowd: not only integrating local, international and young people's favorite catering, but also strictly screening tenants according to the characteristics of Guangzhou's night consumption, introducing popular Internet celebrity shops; holding trend activities such as Tiande Tide Games and Qixi Trench Powder Festival, attracting a large number of young people to flock to it.

"Taste of Guangzhou" taste of life

Urban renewal resonates with cultural genes

Urbanist Mumford said: "Cities are containers of culture. Industrial heritage is an important carrier to mark the genes of urban industrial culture. Guangzhou has been the economic center of the region since ancient times, and has accumulated a large number of industrial imprints with unique historical and cultural values. In the context of "retreating two into three" and "three old transformations", a large number of landmark projects such as Redtory, T.I.T, and Swire Warehouse were born.

The T.I.T Creative Park, transformed by the Textile Machinery Factory

But the old industrial reform has blossomed all over the country, and how can Guangzhou "fire" to this day? The key is that it has done a good job of "life" articles and business! Let the park be highly citizenized and live, and take the route of "people-friendly style"!

Guangzhou urban renewal, you deserve it! Yongqingfang, T.I.T Creative Park, Swire Cangchang...

The warehouse was renovated and Taikoo Cang became a new gathering place for the citizens

Only by making the industrial gene that has gone through the years become the choice of the public can it effectively resonate with the cultural gene, and can we truly retain and inherit the industrial memory!

(1). Taikoo Cang - the waterfront life of literary and artistic fans

Built next to the water, a century-old pier

Guangzhou is the only large port in the world that has flourished for more than 2,000 years, and the development of port trade has made the terminal industry deeply rooted in the urban genes of Guangzhou. Located on the west bank of the Pearl River in Haizhu District, Taikoo Cang, which is built near the water and thrives on the water, is one of the representatives. Swire Warehouse was built by Swire & Co. in 1904–1908 for the use of Swire Steamship.

As a century-old warehouse wharf and a former national first-class port, it is not only a witness to guangzhou's industrial development, but also a "senior-level" internet celebrity punch card in Guangzhou. After the renovation was completed in 2010, more than 2.2 million tourists still visit every year.

The remodeled Swire Warehouse

Relying on water to draft water - hydrophilic orientation, shaping a characteristic waterfront leisure life

Swire Cang has the only 3 remaining T-shaped terminals in South China, and by referring to the mature practices of foreign fisherman's wharves, it has introduced elements such as "containers" and created many style bars in the T-shaped wharf and the area along the river;

Compound development - a variety of functions, to create a business and entertainment integration of urban living room

Taikoo Cang, which has preserved 8 red-walled warehouses that are nearly extinct in Guangzhou, is a well-known film outing place in Guangzhou. The warehouse's huge and unique spatial attributes make it inherently easier for people to gather and communicate. Spring Breeze Ten Miles, Mr. Rocky's Cowboy Restaurant bar and other specialty restaurants have laid the first impression of many people on the music restaurant bar; the ancient and modern collision of watching movies and watching talk shows in the century-old warehouse has become a must-experience project for people to come here.

(2). Pearl River Pipa Beer Culture and Creative Art Zone - Grounded Tide Play Life

To count the memories of Guangzhou's 80s, Pearl River Beer counts one. The predecessor of Pipa Dai, which is known as the Pearl River Brewery in the old Guangdong, was renovated in 2016 and completed in 2019.

【Make full use of industrial style to achieve crowd drainage】

In order to break the psychological distance between the old factory and the public, Pipa Dai took advantage of the original style of "industrial style" to build this place into a multi-style film mecca. Whether it is the mottled old shelves or the crisscrossing industrial pipes, the lute has retained the most original taste;

Legacy of industry became a landscape

For the symbol of bead beer, the malt barn, the simple white paint is enough to produce INS films; the entrance landmark chimney, art sculpture and painted mural with industrial symbols as elements are creating inviting power, making it eye-catching and gold-absorbing.

(3). T.I.T Creative Park - The Aesthetics of Life in Innovation

Guangzhou's textile industry is well-known throughout the country, and the predecessor of T.I.T is Guangzhou Textile Machinery Factory, which was built in 1956. Located on the new central axis of Guangzhou, the Canton Tower is not far to the south, and you will find this quiet paradise.

T.I.T - the literary and artistic back garden in the downtown area, touchable feelings, immeasurable innovative ideas

After the park was discontinued in 2007, it did not choose to "start another stove", but positioned the theme of "fashion, creativity and technology", and upgraded the "old bank" by integrating the power of the Internet and the creative industry. Today, in addition to the famous WeChat Guangzhou headquarters, it has also attracted a number of institutions such as MO&Co and ESMOD.

Creativity, aesthetics, not only clothing, but also life!

Guangzhou's urban renewal takes the "life" route, and T.I.T is definitely a living example.

T.I.T delineates 6 functional divisions, integrating creativity, culture, business and tourism experience

This can be seen from its planned 6 functional areas: in addition to creating a dream factory for creative talents, the footnotes of fashion creativity are also marked into life - a large number of new and trendy formats that can interact with people's lives have been implanted, and tourism and leisure have been developed.

Trendy little shops can be found everywhere in the park

Creating the aesthetics of life and realizing creative life, Emerald Town is the best place to experience this feature. It is home to the popular slash shop, Shutoku Life Hall, which advocates "design changes life".

The open stepped theatre often features original films and small lectures

It is a business park, but also a citizen park!

The park adheres to the principle of "repairing the old as old", and retains the original style of the old factory area and the textile industry elements to the greatest extent.

Guangzhou urban renewal, you deserve it! Yongqingfang, T.I.T Creative Park, Swire Cangchang...

Most of the factories in the park are in the 1950s and 1960s, with old-fashioned wall paintings and blackboard newspapers, which make the nostalgia and creativity of the rapid industrial development period in the last century come to the fore

However, more attention has been paid to "ecological restoration" and a natural and comfortable "park-like" business park has been created. First of all, strictly control the plot ratio of the entire park is less than 0.5, and at the same time divert water into the park to create a water-friendly landscape; more than 300 old trees in the original old factory area? Keep all! The greening rate has increased from 60% to 80%.

Guangzhou urban renewal, you deserve it! Yongqingfang, T.I.T Creative Park, Swire Cangchang...

The plot ratio of the park is low, and most of them are single-family office spaces

For elite talents, large areas of red bricks, white walls, green leaves, blue sky, coupled with floor-to-ceiling glass windows of single-family work space, so that they can work in the scenery, exchange ideas;

Guangzhou urban renewal, you deserve it! Yongqingfang, T.I.T Creative Park, Swire Cangchang...

The creativity and inspiration of elite talents collide here

For the public, it is completely open to the public, and it is a good place for their daily entertainment and leisure, enriching their cultural life. "Every morning around 8 o'clock, many people like to come here with a tape recorder to dance" Scenery is both attractive and productive!

The diverse fusion of "Guangzhou taste"

Urban renewal is an update with different needs

Urban development has entered the era of stock, and urban renewal, as a new topic in the old city, has always been a piece of "good-looking meat, hard to gnaw bones". The whole country is groping forward.

Guangzhou urban renewal, you deserve it! Yongqingfang, T.I.T Creative Park, Swire Cangchang...

The transformation of Beijing Road, the central axis of the old city, a representative area of the transformation of the old city of Guangzhou

In 2016, Guangzhou gave its solution to the problem - micro-transformation. Do not engage in big moves, do not perform major surgery, but does not mean simple building renewal, no flow, no industrial momentum, do not solve the problem of the integration of old and new, is still a failure. Yongqingfang provides a valuable experience.

Guangzhou urban renewal, you deserve it! Yongqingfang, T.I.T Creative Park, Swire Cangchang...

Yongqingfang's "Micro Update"

Yongqingfang is located in the middle of the century-old Enning Road, the core area of Guangzhou's Xiguan Cultural Circle. There are the most complete preserved arcade buildings in Guangzhou, a large number of Chinese and Western Republic of China buildings, traditional houses and cultural protection units, but it is also one of the most concentrated areas of dangerous old houses in Guangzhou.

Guangzhou urban renewal, you deserve it! Yongqingfang, T.I.T Creative Park, Swire Cangchang...

Enning Road style

Since 2006, renovation work has been initiated in the Enning Road area. As it is an old historical and cultural street, the renovation plan has been discussed for more than ten years, and six drafts have been changed, and finally, the concept of micro-transformation of "repairing the old as the old, integrating the old and the new" was established.

Guangzhou urban renewal, you deserve it! Yongqingfang, T.I.T Creative Park, Swire Cangchang...

Yongqingfang Phase I style

The project is developed in two phases, covering an area of about 8,000 square meters, the first phase is already a punching destination; the second phase of 10 times the area of the first phase, and 5 of the 8 precincts have been opened, and will be completed by the end of 2021.

Guangzhou urban renewal, you deserve it! Yongqingfang, T.I.T Creative Park, Swire Cangchang...

Phase II has opened some areas

In four, Yongqingfang has realized the two-way realization of "historical protection" and "revitalization of the old city".

(1). Change the "head" - model innovation, and discuss and build with the public

How the new and old "residents" coexist is the key to the smooth progress of the renewal of the old city. People's City People's Construction, Yongqingfang attaches great importance to the role of public participation - the main body of decision-making and implementation from the government to the transformation of pluralistic consultation, and adopts the model of "government-led, enterprise undertaking, and resident participation". In the form of BOT (construction-operation-transfer), Vanke was introduced for transformation, construction and operation, and returned to the government after the expiration of the 15-year operation period.

Guangzhou urban renewal, you deserve it! Yongqingfang, T.I.T Creative Park, Swire Cangchang...

BOT mode

In the second phase of the renovation, the "Enning Road Historical and Cultural Block Joint Creation Committee" was also created to build a public discussion and communication platform, with members covering experts, residents, merchants, and media, and more than half of the residents, effectively ensuring that new and old residents reach cultural and value consensus.

(2). Change the "face" - according to local conditions, "embroidery" out of the Characteristics of Lingnan

Can stay as much as possible, can repair as much as possible. Yongqingfang used "embroidery" kung fu to reshape the style of the neighborhood. On the renovation of the house, the original building contour is basically maintained unchanged, following the traditional craftsmanship, updating, protecting and decorating the façade, and strengthening the overall style and characteristics of Lingnan architecture;

Guangzhou urban renewal, you deserve it! Yongqingfang, T.I.T Creative Park, Swire Cangchang...

Renovate the façade of the building and reproduce the characteristics of Lingnan style

On the basis of retaining the spatial texture characteristics of traditional residential buildings in Lingnan, Vanke has developed a renovation plan for each building by inspecting and sorting out nearly 60 old houses in the area. And the use of large-scale demolition of waste materials, such as tiles, green bricks, hemp stone and other design landscapes, holographic to create a quaint atmosphere.

Guangzhou urban renewal, you deserve it! Yongqingfang, T.I.T Creative Park, Swire Cangchang...
