Excellent Historical Building No.: XH-J-011-V; Immovable Cultural Relics No.: 310104945190000056 Cape Town Apartments Republic of China Hunan Street

Present name/unit: Cape Town Apartments

Address: Wukang Road No. 240, 242, 246

240 Wukang Road, formerly known as Cape Town Apartments, was built in 1940 and designed by British Gonghe & Co. Architectural Design. It is an apartment building with western modernist architectural features. The most special thing about the apartment is its triangular shape, and only by placing it in the historical context of real estate development in the process of urbanization of the concession at that time can we understand the reasons. At that time, the western part of the Shanghai Concession had completed the development process from suburbs to urban spaces, so what was left for many apartment buildings was only some remaining plots of land developed by bungalows and low-rise residential buildings, many of which were street corners, and it was obvious that those schemes that played the value of each inch of land and laid out rationally in the limits would be approved by the owners. The apartment's iron-like architectural form is undoubtedly a product of this particular history. However, the architects used ingenious design to make the ordinary house in this limited space come alive. There are many influences of modern architectural forms that appeared in Europe in the 1920s, and there are also streamlined style characteristics, and its special shape is clearly related to the simple details, especially the curved treatment of the sharp corners of the apartment buildings is embellished with small corner windows, and the window trend along the street façade is consistent, making the whole building look like a walking ship, which today seems to be a concise and dynamic shape In that modern era, it must be a bold and bold attempt by architects.

After the outbreak of the Pacific War, the apartment became the site of the Wang Pseudo-Bazaarth Bank. In 1944, the apartment was transferred to the Bank of China. At that time, it was not only an office, but also many middle-level and high-level bank employees. After the victory of the War of Resistance, the apartment was nationalized. After the liberation of Shanghai, this old apartment was taken over by the government housing management department and renamed as two or four O apartments after the road serial number. It is now a residential home.
