Reconstruction planning of the old city south of Nanjing

Abandoning large-scale demolition and construction, the new version of the plan embodies a new idea of protection and rejuvenation-

Laochengnan is one of the areas with the longest history and the deepest cultural accumulation in Nanjing, and its protection and revival work has been highly concerned by all walks of life.

Yesterday, the reporter was informed at the briefing of the new edition of Nanjing Old City South Protection and Rehabilitation Plan organized by the Municipal Planning Bureau that the protection of the old city south will adopt a small-scale, hospital-by-hospital, full-spectrum and step-by-step approach to achieve comprehensive protection. Relevant experts believe that the hospital-by-hospital revival has exemplary significance for the protection of other areas in the south of the city.

Focus on planning

Highlight 1: protect by the hospital, and the streets and lanes in the demolished area are restored according to the old map.

The planned historical urban area of the old city south of the city is about 6.9 square kilometers, starting from the middle branch of Qinhuai River (Du Yun) in the north, east to Qinhuai River and south to Yingtian Street. Different from the previous large-scale demolition and construction, the new version of the plan puts forward the protection and renovation of various historical and cultural resources in various periods in a small scope, hospital by hospital and in a full spectrum. The so-called courtyard-by-courtyard is to gradually restore protection according to the conditions of plots and buildings. The blocks that have been demolished on the east and west sides of the gate will be restored according to the original traditional and true streets and lanes, and the original spatial scale and memory will be preserved according to the records of the courtyard boundary in its heyday, such as cadastral map 1937 and boundary map 195 1.

For example, in the process of urban reconstruction in the last century, the north-south hoop alley was widened to about 30 meters, which destroyed the original style. The new version of the plan proposes to restore the hoop alley to about 13 meters according to the original scale.

Highlight 2: Zhang Qian Lane is included in the protection list.

10 The new street planning lists all 98 historical streets and lanes in the south of the old city, including Zhang Qian Lane, Pingzhang Lane, Xinfuhe Lane and Leigong Lane 10. These streets will be protected in the future.

At the same time, the plan also sorts out the cultural relics and historic sites such as Wang Boling's former residence, Yi Jiantang, Yingwangfu, Liu Zhitian's former residence, Zhu Zhuangyuan's mansion, Zhouchu reading platform, etc. 145. Organize the historical buildings recommended by Dongshi, Xishi and Yong 'an Shopping Mall 175 (buildings to be protected); 33 intangible cultural heritages, such as Nanjing Yunjin Wood Machine Makeup Hand Weaving Technology and Jinling Engraving Printing Technology, have been sorted out. In addition, the plan also lists 42 locatable historical and cultural resources and 45 non-locatable historical and cultural resources, which correspond to different blocks and are also protected, which is not in the historical plan.

Highlight 3: The cornice height in the historical core area is forbidden to exceed 7 meters.

The new plan divides the building height control in the south of the old city into five categories.

Among them, the height of the cornice in the historical core area, other areas that have not been demolished and rebuilt, and the periphery of Zhonghua Gate shall not exceed 7 meters, and the height control area of 10 meter shall be set aside; The heights of other areas south of Qing Ji Road and Changle Road shall not exceed12m; The height of new buildings in other areas between Qing Ji Road, Changle Road, Shengzhou Road and Jiankang Road shall not exceed18m; And the control height of the area north of Shengzhou Road-Jiankang Road is adjusted from 35 meters to 24 meters.

Highlight 4: The funds are no longer balanced on the spot, and the protection funds are mainly invested by the government.

Focusing on the protection policy of 16 put forward by the municipal party committee and municipal government in 2007, under the guidance of the protection concept of "respecting history, culture and ancestors" of the new municipal party committee and municipal government, the new version of the plan proposes to change the old mode of balancing funds locally and regionally, and the government will take the lead in solving the funding gap by other means. The funds for protecting the old city south of the city will be mainly invested by the government. Our reporter and correspondent, the buildings in the south of Wan Old Town were mainly used as public facilities after being restored.

Liu Qingyi, deputy director of the Municipal Planning Bureau, answered the reporter's question.

Reporter: It is reported that in the process of protecting the old city, residents are encouraged to move back. Is that so?

Liu Qinghao: An important purpose of the protection and revival of the old city south is to improve the living environment of residents. There are many ways to improve, including affordable housing, property rights exchange housing, low-cost commercial housing and so on. Among them, in some conditional areas, residents will also try to move back. However, in some areas, the population density is very high and the situation is very different, so it is unrealistic to move back.

Reporter: What are the restored buildings in the old city south of the city mainly used for?

Liu Qinghao: The functions of these buildings are mixed. Most of them will be used as public facilities such as cultural exhibition and performing arts centers, museums, tourism and leisure, and some supporting facilities such as creative industries, businesses and houses.

Reporter: When will the revival and protection of the old city south be completed?

Liu Qinghao: This is a gradual and long-term process, and it is still difficult to determine how many years it will take to complete. However, the revival and protection of the "second line and three films", namely the Ming city wall, the first line of the inner Qinhuai River scenic belt and the three capture halls of the east, west and south gate, will take the lead.

Reporter: The original streets were relatively narrow. How to solve the traffic and fire problems?

Liu Qinghao: The new version of the old city south planning advocates green transportation. Establish a battery car and bicycle traffic system in the unreformed block, set up a transfer center in the peripheral parking lot, encourage residents and tourists to transfer to battery cars and bicycles to enter the block, and set up convenient battery car stations and bicycle parking spots in the block. A slow road with a width of about 7 meters will be built next to the Ming city wall, mainly for tourist vehicles, taxis and slow traffic. In terms of fire fighting, in addition to transforming the building itself to meet the fire fighting needs, the block will also be equipped with some small fire engines that are convenient to pass.

Reporter: What impact will the revival and protection of the old city south have on Nanjing's tourism industry?

Liu Qinghao: The historical and cultural resources in the south of the old city are very rich. The new version of the plan will make the old city south of the city form a network of tourism, leisure and entertainment in the future, rather than just "fighting alone" in the Confucius Temple. In the future, tourists will transfer from Fu You Temple to the south of the old city. Strive to create "two belts, three axes, four pieces and four nodes"

According to the plan, the spatial structure of the cultural resources exhibition in the south of the old city can be summarized as "two belts, three axes, four pieces and four nodes".

Two belts: the scenery belt of the city wall-moat and the traditional customs belt of Qinhuai River;

Three axes: the central axis of the traditional city of Zhonghua Road; Door East-Door West traditional residence exhibition axis; Shengzhou Road-Jiankang Road historical and cultural resources exhibition axis;

Four films: Confucius Temple traditional imperial examination and commercial culture exhibition area; Menton traditional life and culture exhibition area; The historical landscape and traditional life exhibition area of Phoenix Terrace in Menxi; Nanbutang Workshop Life and Culture Exhibition Area;

Four nodes: the core node of the commercial culture of Confucius Temple; Shuiximen-Chaotian Palace West Entrance Node; The landmark node of Zhonghua Gate; Dongshuiguan-Egret Island East Entrance Node. Shi Ping street design renderings.

Nanbutang is one of the important areas in the south of the old city. The new version rejected the previous plan to build a villa. All the well-structured buildings that can be preserved are preserved, and the functions are updated according to the original scale. There used to be a saying of "eighteen squares" in Nanjing. In the future, Nanbutang will form a traditional cultural block with Nanbutang Lane, Daban Lane, Zhuang Ling Lane and Shi Ping Street as the core and Shengzhou Road and Ding Xin Road as the support. 72 square meters is mainly used to show intangible culture such as brocade.

Some old factories will also be completely transformed. For example, the former Nanjing Textile Industry and Trade Group Company and Nanjing Baird Stainless Steel Products Factory cover an area of about 0.66 hectares. The design scheme of this renovation is to keep 7 factories and use them after appropriate renovation; Using the reserved plant frame and landscape design, a cultural square is formed.

Dongmen area is another focus in the south of the old city. Among them, Jiang Shoushan's former residence is a typical representative of residential buildings in the south of the old city in the late Qing Dynasty. Well-preserved, the courtyard pattern is complete. The illegal buildings of the original residents in the hospital have been demolished. In the original planning, Jiang Shoushan's former residence was planned as an exhibition center with catering services around it; In the new planning, Jiang Shoushan's former residence is positioned as the former residence museum. At the same time, the parasol factory next to it is also included in the unified planning as a rectification unit. After the reorganization, Jiang Shoushan's former residence will be turned into a new tourist destination integrating museums, former residence gardens and block parks.
