Executive Summary

Transforming from a typical industrial town into a livable city, Dali (Nanhai District) successfully integrates vibrant public spaces within its dense urban fabric by repurposing obsolete riverside warehouses, redefining its urban life axis.

Analytical Insights

  • Dali (Nanhai District) in the Pearl River Delta, once a typical industrial town that neglected human-centered public life amid rapid development, has transformed into a livable city through the extension of the Qiandeng Lake axis, unlocking valuable public space within its dense urban fabric.
  • The Yongping Warehouses project, located in the Yanbu Old Dragon 1432 Zone along the Huadi River, aims to revitalize obsolete riverside warehouses—remnants of the area's trade heritage along the Guangzhou-Foshan thoroughfare—transforming them into a vital waterfront public leisure space.
  • This initiative not only respects and reuses historical industrial remnants but also demonstrates how, amidst rapid urbanization, forgotten corners can be repurposed into key nodes that foster community interaction and enhance urban living quality through thoughtful design.
