New heritage protection plan
Print Edition
PROTECTING Shanghai’s rich architectural heritage, especially in rural areas, is the aim of a new action plan being drafted, city planners said at a meeting yesterday with political advisers.
“We will work out the general targets, content and priorities of the protection plan,” said Zhuang Shaoqin, director of the Shanghai Planning, Land and Resources Administration. “One of the key research studies we will do is on protecting the urban historic sites, including famous towns, villages and other areas with traditional historic features.”
The plan, part of a three-year (2016-2018) heritage protection program, was undertaken after Party chief Han Zheng asked the administration to shift its focus from protecting single buildings to entire historic neighborhoods.
So far, Shanghai has put 401 streets or neighborhoods on the list of conservation areas.
Lu Yongyi, a professor at the College of Architecture and Urban Planning at Tongji University, listed rural historic areas as one of the greatest preservation challenges facing the city.
“As the old towns also want to develop, the government faces challenges in balancing heritage conservation with modernization,” she said.
