== Landscape and/or urban context of your case ==
*'''Biogeography'''
The area is situated in Eurosiberian region, in east-central Europe and from geomorphological point of view it's Middle European Plain, Masovian Lowland. It means, that the the relief of the terrain in this place is almost flat, rich in very developed river network. The medium altitude of the area is 127,6 m above the see level. Modlin is a district of Nowy Dwór Mazowiecki, located in east-central Poland, in Masovian Lowland. The climate of Masovian lowland is transitional climate between maritime and continental climate. As a resoult in the region there is pretty high temperature amplitude (in a scale of year), mostly during the winter season (2°C to -2°C). In the summer the average temperature is balanced, around 18 °C - 18,5 °C. The atmospheric precipitation level here is the lowest in the country and usually it's less than 500 mm during the year scale. Although soils here are rather poor- mostly podzols- nearby big rivers (so where Modlin Fortress is located) it's easy to find fertile alluvial soils. Despite the fact, that in most of Masovian Province area woods have been replaced by urban structures or transformed into ''Pinus'' monocultures, in the surroundings of Modlin still wilderness and various woods exist.

Flora and fauna existing in the area: according to document done towards the needs of Professional Geodety School, I've collected information about species existing in the sourroundings of the airport. Most common vegetation is trees such as: ''Acer sp, Betula sp, Corylus sp, Crataegus sp, Picea sp, Pinus sp, Populus sp, Prunus sp, Quercus sp, Sanbucus nigra sp, Tilia sp''. With other plants mostly we can find there: ''Lupinus sp, Silybum marianum, Solidago sp, Tanacetum vulgare, Urtica dioica''. The most important fauna in the area are birds - many endangered species and species connected to water habitats.

*'''Urban context: history and dynamics'''
The location of Modlin at the confluence of Vistula, Narew and Wkra rivers was bringing to the place outstanding defensive qualities. Napoleon Bonaparte, during extending his impact on Eastern Europe, created Duchy of Warsaw and built serie of fortresses in its area. One of them was Modlin Fortress, which was started in 1806. According to his plan, the internal circuit of today's citadel was formed. The stronghold was created from earth and wood, with 5 bastions and the shape of semicircle, opened to the river.

After the Napoleon's period, the fortress has been occupied by Russian army. Russians have extended the area of fortress with an external perimeter, which was based on the shape of "crowns" of the internal bastion and consisted six fronts. In 1864 the complex of barracks was built, the citadel and the external circuit have been surrounded by the wall, called the Carnot. Im 1883 another reconstruction started- the Tsar's Army decided to build the "chain" of forts surrounding the fortress. This 8 forts are made of earth and bricks, and its length is 30 km, they are creating the first ring of forts. Similar modernization has been done in 1914, when the second ring of forts appeared. They created 10 additional forts, using concrete and steal.

87 years later, already after the I World War in December 1918 the Modlin Fortress has been taken by Polish Army.

In the interwar period Corps of Cadets stationed in Modlin. There was also Armored Training Center, with the Cadets School and the School of Officers, and also Sapper Training Centre. During next years the complex has been used for military goals, after the II World War the object still has been used by Polish Army as a training area etc.

Nowadays The Modlin Fortress isn't anymore strategic military point. It became a historical monument, with it's well preserved buildings which are attracting many tourists.

*'''Overall character and cultural features'''

Nowadays, during the urban sprawl the space between internal and external perimeter of the fortress is partly occupied by housing estates and urban infrastructures. The significant object is an international airport, located just on the border of Modlin Fortress, which for sure is important social and cultural aspect overall, but obviously has a huge ( not always positive) influence on the ecology of the region and the quality of life of local citizens. The area in general is open, but with the historical buildings the situation is different - only some of them are open to the public and people can visit them with the guide, the rest is getting destroyed with the time and acts of vandalism. The terrain of the fortress is subject of conservation officer's care and in spite of the fact, that last year it was bought by private investor, the conservator needs to agree for all the proposed changes. There is a permission of adapting buildings of the main part (citadel) to new functions such as apartments, office space, but there is also condition: not to change overall exterior appearance of the buildings and to keep educational function by reserving part of the fortress for a museum. However labour on renovation of the object will need many changes in underground infrastructure such as connection to canalization, electricity and so on. Also with another extension of urban zone, there will be a necessity of creation social spots, such as parks, public squares and infrastructure connected to this. Fortunately in the area, inside the buildings of citadel and in the area between two perimeters of the fortress, there is a lot of greenery which can be easly adapted to new functions.

== What are the overall objectives of your design? What are the specific objectives for enhancing green infrastrucutre? ==

Overall objective of this integrated design is connecting existing urban structures with historical elements in the way it'll be well adapted to new functions, makes area attractive and involves ideas positively working on ecological and cultural aspects of the place.

- creation of places with organized greenery (parks, gardens)

- facilities for citizens - f.ex. designing parkings

- improving connectivity between both circuits of the fortress and surrounding area and accessibility to historical objects

- provide access to the riverside and creation of attractive boulevards

- adaptation of historical objects to new functions - f.x embankments might transform into paths with view points dor interesting objects.

- protection and preservation the historical objects

All of mentioned ideas can include GI elements.

The objective of enhancing green infrastructure is minimizing the negative influence of the airport on local and surrounding areas, like problem of noise, pollution (air, soil, water), the ground water level disturbance and in general all the factors which can have bad impact on fauna, flora and quality of humans life in the region. Also there is plan of reducing artificial isolation within the fortress area.

- Plantation plans including high noise damping and pollution storing vegetation in surroundings of the airport

- Plantation plans including biofiltration species in the surroundings of the airport

- Plantation plans providing biodiversity of the place

- Resumption of lost habitats

- Rainwater management strategy and storage elements

- Proper adaptation of the circuits of fortifications and embankments, reduction of isolation

- GI elements in the urban environment: urban agriculture and health pathways in newly planned housing estimate in citadel

== Summary of the collaborative process ==

During our collaborative process we successfully managed to develop the very first plans of redesigning the fortress and later introduce also new ideas.

The area chosen by us is characterized by a huge GI potential, because of its specific values and also we can say, that it really requires the GI intervention due to the fact of both- disadvantages connected to the airport (noise, pollution) and existing infrastructure (fragmentation) and in the same time positives of those objects (airport- development of infrastructure and tourism, fortifications- cultural goods) . According to this, the biggest potential was minimizing negative effects, that the airport cases in the area as well as eliminating negative impact of division of the fortress zones by connecting it and improving general values of the object and life there, by using GI urban elements and developing buffer zones such as green corridor next to the riverside.

We think, that the most difficult was in general working in the area as difficult as the Fortress of Modlin is; because of the age of the object, it's former destination and changes which were introduced there during the years, currently also the law limitations, the objects existing nowadays don't represent nothing like functionality or reasonable spatial development. Living there must be very uncomfortable, but everything can change with a bit of knowledge and imagination.

By sharing our experience of different educational and cultural background we could learn from each other about new solutions or just extend our existing knowledge, what let us work on this pretty big scale object and focus on various aspects inside, and finally achieve our goal, which was the design of integrated area with GI elements.

The atmospheric precipitation level here is the lowest in the country and usually it's less than 500 mm during the year scale. Although soils here are rather poor- mostly podzols- nearby big rivers (so where Modlin Fortress is located) it's easy to find fertile alluvial soils. Despite the fact, that in most of Masovian Province area woods have been replaced by urban structures or transformed into ''Pinus'' monocultures, in the surroundings of Modlin still wilderness and various woods exist.

Flora and fauna existing in the area: according to document done towards the needs of Professional Geodety School, I've collected information about species existing in the sourroundings of the airport. Most common vegetation is trees such as: ''Acer sp, Betula sp, Corylus sp, Crataegus sp, Picea sp, Pinus sp, Populus sp, Prunus sp, Quercus sp, Sanbucus nigra sp, Tilia sp''. With other plants mostly we can find there: ''Lupinus sp, Silybum marianum, Solidago sp, Tanacetum vulgare, Urtica dioica''. The most important fauna in the area are birds - many endangered species and species connected to water habitats.

*'''Urban context: history and dynamics'''
The location of Modlin at the confluence of Vistula, Narew and Wkra rivers was bringing to the place outstanding defensive qualities. Napoleon Bonaparte, during extending his impact on Eastern Europe, created Duchy of Warsaw and built serie of fortresses in its area. One of them was Modlin Fortress, which was started in 1806. According to his plan, the internal circuit of today's citadel was formed. The stronghold was created from earth and wood, with 5 bastions and the shape of semicircle, opened to the river.

After the Napoleon's period, the fortress has been occupied by Russian army. Russians have extended the area of fortress with an external perimeter, which was based on the shape of "crowns" of the internal bastion and consisted six fronts. In 1864 the complex of barracks was built, the citadel and the external circuit have been surrounded by the wall, called the Carnot. Im 1883 another reconstruction started- the Tsar's Army decided to build the "chain" of forts surrounding the fortress. This 8 forts are made of earth and bricks, and its length is 30 km, they are creating the first ring of forts. Similar modernization has been done in 1914, when the second ring of forts appeared. They created 10 additional forts, using concrete and steal.

87 years later, already after the I World War in December 1918 the Modlin Fortress has been taken by Polish Army.

In the interwar period Corps of Cadets stationed in Modlin. There was also Armored Training Center, with the Cadets School and the School of Officers, and also Sapper Training Centre. During next years the complex has been used for military goals, after the II World War the object still has been used by Polish Army as a training area etc.

Nowadays The Modlin Fortress isn't anymore strategic military point. It became a historical monument, with it's well preserved buildings which are attracting many tourists.

*'''Overall character and cultural features'''

Nowadays, during the urban sprawl the space between internal and external perimeter of the fortress is partly occupied by housing estates and urban infrastructures. The significant object is an international airport, located just on the border of Modlin Fortress, which for sure is important social and cultural aspect overall, but obviously has a huge ( not always positive) influence on the ecology of the region and the quality of life of local citizens. The area in general is open, but with the historical buildings the situation is different - only some of them are open to the public and people can visit them with the guide, the rest is getting destroyed with the time and acts of vandalism. The terrain of the fortress is subject of conservation officer's care and in spite of the fact, that last year it was bought by private investor, the conservator needs to agree for all the proposed changes. There is a permission of adapting buildings of the main part (citadel) to new functions such as apartments, office space, but there is also condition: not to change overall exterior appearance of the buildings and to keep educational function by reserving part of the fortress for a museum. However labour on renovation of the object will need many changes in underground infrastructure such as connection to canalization, electricity and so on. Also with another extension of urban zone, there will be a necessity of creation social spots, such as parks, public squares and infrastructure connected to this. Fortunately in the area, inside the buildings of citadel and in the area between two perimeters of the fortress, there is a lot of greenery which can be easly adapted to new functions.

== What are the overall objectives of your design? What are the specific objectives for enhancing green infrastrucutre? ==

Overall objective of this integrated design is connecting existing urban structures with historical elements in the way it'll be well adapted to new functions, makes area attractive and involves ideas positively working on ecological and cultural aspects of the place.

- creation of places with organized greenery (parks, gardens)

- facilities for citizens - f.ex. designing parkings

- improving connectivity between both circuits of the fortress and surrounding area and accessibility to historical objects

- provide access to the riverside and creation of attractive boulevards

- adaptation of historical objects to new functions - f.x embankments might transform into paths with view points dor interesting objects.

- protection and preservation the historical objects

All of mentioned ideas can include GI elements.

The objective of enhancing green infrastructure is minimizing the negative influence of the airport on local and surrounding areas, like problem of noise, pollution (air, soil, water), the ground water level disturbance and in general all the factors which can have bad impact on fauna, flora and quality of humans life in the region. Also there is plan of reducing artificial isolation within the fortress area.

- Plantation plans including high noise damping and pollution storing vegetation in surroundings of the airport

- Plantation plans including biofiltration species in the surroundings of the airport

- Plantation plans providing biodiversity of the place

- Resumption of lost habitats

- Rainwater management strategy and storage elements

- Proper adaptation of the circuits of fortifications and embankments, reduction of isolation

- GI elements in the urban environment: urban agriculture and health pathways in newly planned housing estimate in citadel

== Rationale: Why is this case interesting? ==

This area is situated in the eastern of the city Chengdu, it has a rich cultural connotation and special industrial history connecting with the city,the years of half a century ago.In the beginning of 1950s, Chengdu became one of the most important electronic industrial base in China, after 1960s many national factories were founded in this area and produced many components of the television, radio, and some part of the military machine. From 90s the new electronic products and IT industry were developing so fast,therefore the factories reduced to manufacture of products, until 2010s all of the factories were disused. We can also find a railway in this area, because at that time people transported the completed product to all the country by train,and the departure was the department of the factory.
There is a river through this area, and also have a small wetland by the side of the river. Surrounding this area,many residents who worked in these factories before live there,and also there are some institutional establishment, school and transportation.

== Author's perspective ==
Green infrastructure

I’m so interested in this area,because it’s a valuable place to create a green infrastructure and it has many individual element, which can man integrate and connect with each other by corridor and buffer.As we know,there are old disused buildings ,a river, some small wetland and some vacant place where it had factories before and removed already. I’d like to make a planning to create a new environment for the residents, it will be a great green infrastructure in the future. either the people or the animals will get the benefit from this area.It’s a public space, and constitute of the area include the aspects of ecology, reuse,economy,education and so on.

== Landscape and urban context of the case ==

'''Biogeography'''
This case is situated in the city of eastern suburbs Chengdu,the dominating terrain of this case is plains. Because the whole city is located at the western edge of the Sichuan Basin and sits on the Chengdu Plain and has an elevation ranging from 450 meters to 720 meters. Since ancient times, this city has been known as "the Abundant Land" owing to its fertile soil, favorable climate, and novel Dujiangyan Irrigation System. The urban area, features a few rivers, three of them being the Jin, Fu, and Sha Rivers. The river “Sha” flow through the area of the case.

'''Climate'''
Chengdu has four distinct seasons, with moderate rainfall concentrated mainly in the warmer months, and relieved from both sweltering summers and freezing winters.
Rainfall is common year-round but is the greatest in July and August, with very little of it in the cooler months. Chengdu also has one of the lowest annual sunshine totals nationally, and most days are cloudy and overcast even if without rain. This is especially so in the winter months, when it is typically interminably grey and dreary, compounding the poor air quality.

'''Cultural Features'''

we call it cultural, however, in my opinion this word when I used it in this city,it sounds like life style.
It is a positive city,and the residents know what is the life. They know how to enjoy and share the life. The life style is always slowly and comfortable.
<gallery caption= "daily life" widths="150px" heights="150px" perrow="3">

*<Traditional tea houses>

Traditional tea houses in Chengdu usually feature bamboo chairs and wooden tables and offer jasmine, green tea and biluochun tea.Modern tea houses can be spotted on almost every city corner. The price for tea varies from 5 RMB(0.7€) to several hundred. Besides tea and snacks, almost all tea houses offer Majiang sets, tables, and sometimes separate majiang rooms. Most locals go to tea houses to play majiang with friends. Some luxury tea houses in Chengdu also offer live entertainment such as Sichuan opera shows.

*<Theatre>

The regional opera is very popular in the city. the traditional performance named Chuanju, this is an ancient form of comedic drama involving dancing,singing,poetry and miming. The first detailed recorded opera was staged in the royal court of Shu Kingdom during the Three Kingdom Period(Chengdu was the center of the Shu kingdom at that period). And face-changing masks and fire breathing remain hallmarks of the Sichuan Opera.

*<Majiang>

Majiang has been an essential part of most local people's life. Almost every household in Chengdu has at least one set of majiang. People play majiang at home or in tea houses. On sunny days, the residents like to play majiang on the sidewalks, especially in the area nearby the Fu River. Most people play with money to make the game more exciting. Mahjong is the most popular entertainment choice among locals for several reasons. The main reason is that friends and families chat over mahjong tables, making majiang an important social vehicle.

*<Food>
<gallery caption= "Sichuan's Food" widths="150px" heights="150px" perrow="3">
Image: Food.jpg|the typical food in this region
</gallery>

Sichuan Food is very popular in China, even in the world. It's almost a food culture in this region.Traditional Sichuan Food is very spicy.
In every street you can find large or small restaurant, people love eating chill and sometimes they're willing to wait for a long time to have a dinner.
Chinese hot pot is typical food here,it was cooked with plenty of chill and sichuan pepper.There are so many fans for it.

'''overall character'''

The holistic area belongs industrial zone. Nowadays,half of the factories in this area were removed, rest of them were disused. Some residential building have been constructed nearby. The city become as large as before. there are four ring roads in this city, currently this area is located by the second ring road. Compare with the scale of Chengdu, the site of this case is not far from the center of city. People like living in inner city, it will cost small time on the way to their business.

'''History and Dynamics'''

Chengdu was inhabited over four thousand years ago and was an important center of a unique ancient culture.It is the only major city in China to have remained in the same location with the same name after more than 2000 years. In this case, I'd like to show some contemporary era of this city, the site of the case reflect the period of 1950s -2010s. I've narrated above.

== Green Infrastructure benefits for this site ==
''Look again at the multiple benefits of green infrastructure - what could be achieved in your site and which are most relevant?''

As we know, it has some of vacancy place, disused factories, some residential buildings and a small green land by river in this site.how to reuse the old architecture of the factories, how to combine and integrate the individual element. In this case, it will be achieved as a public space and benefit for the residents,the creature and the ecological environment. And it also will improve the economy of the city.

== Potential for multifunctionality ==
''Green infrastructure has typically multiple functions. What could be achieved for your site in this respect?''

'''The aspect of social'''

<Reuse>
One of the oldest city of China, Chengdu is full of particular culture by herself. The old factories are in good condition to be use as a cultural center. In special industrial period of Chengdu should not be forget in the future, it should be a place of preserving the industrial memory. Not only the older, but also the new generation can learn more about the city of Chengdu and the eastern suburbs industrial history.
Some part of the old factory can redecoration to a theater, communication space,cineme and Gallery exhibition. Some of it can redecoration to tea houses and local restaurants,that’s a part of the life of the residents,and it brings and rises the economy.

'''The aspect of ecology'''

<Greenbelt>
Connecting the dispersed green land to form a greenbelt of the area.
Add the green wall and green way to prevent and control the noise and the clean the air pollution.
Building a wandering way in the greenbelt,people can do some sports too. It will be a place where can make a healthy life for the residents.

'''The aspect of hydrology'''

<Water management>
The Sha river is the main river in the city, the land of the surrounding river is a perfect habitant for the creature. From the ecological point of view, keep the river out of pollution, and enhance the rate of the green to is the right direct to approach the sustainable.

== Projective drawings ==
* ''How would you like this case to change in the near future? (in 1-2 years)''
** ''I hope in the first 1-2 years,the green wall can be built,it can make the air clearer and reduce the noise, and I hope some of the planning of the factories can be redecoration and reused as the communication center. The residents will own a public place to do something with their family and friends or can make new friends in some events .Planting more plants in this area, especially nearby the river.'

* ''And how could it look like in 10-15 years?''
** ''In 10-15 years, the condition of the environment of the greenbelt will be reinforced,it can also improve the habitat of the creature and increase more species and ensuring the diverse of the species by the river. This area will be the part of the life of the residents, they will go to this area in daily life. '''

== Summary and conclusion ==
*''It's very interesting, when we reuse some old thing. Time flies, everything will be change, but the architecture will remember the history. If we don't destroy them, we will remind the special and important period of the city generation by generation.''

== Green Infrastructure benefits for this site ==
''Look again at the multiple benefits of green infrastructure - what could be achieved in your site and which are most relevant?''

As we know, it has some of vacancy place, disused factories, some residential buildings and a small green land by river in this site.how to reuse the old architecture of the factories, how to combine and integrate the individual element. In this case, it will be achieved as a public space and benefit for the residents,the creature and the ecological environment. And it also will improve the economy of the city.

== Potential for multifunctionality ==
''Green infrastructure has typically multiple functions. What could be achieved for your site in this respect?''

'''The aspect of social'''

<Reuse>
One of the oldest city of China, Chengdu is full of particular culture by herself. The old factories are in good condition to be use as a cultural center. In special industrial period of Chengdu should not be forget in the future, it should be a place of preserving the industrial memory. Not only the older, but also the new generation can learn more about the city of Chengdu and the eastern suburbs industrial history.
Some part of the old factory can redecoration to a theater, communication space,cineme and Gallery exhibition. Some of it can redecoration to tea houses and local restaurants,that’s a part of the life of the residents,and it brings and rises the economy.

'''The aspect of ecology'''

<Greenbelt>
Connecting the dispersed green land to form a greenbelt of the area.
Add the green wall and green way to prevent and control the noise and the clean the air pollution.
Building a wandering way in the greenbelt,people can do some sports too. It will be a place where can make a healthy life for the residents.

'''The aspect of hydrology'''

<Water management>
The Sha river is the main river in the city, the land of the surrounding river is a perfect habitant for the creature. From the ecological point of view, keep the river out of pollution, and enhance the rate of the green to is the right direct to approach the sustainable.

== Projective drawings ==
* ''How would you like this case to change in the near future? (in 1-2 years)''
** ''I hope in the first 1-2 years,the green wall can be built,it can make the air clearer and reduce the noise, and I hope some of the planning of the factories can be redecoration and reused as the communication center. The residents will own a public place to do something with their family and friends or can make new friends in some events .Planting more plants in this area, especially nearby the river.'

* ''And how could it look like in 10-15 years?''
** ''In 10-15 years, the condition of the environment of the greenbelt will be reinforced,it can also improve the habitat of the creature and increase more species and ensuring the diverse of the species by the river. This area will be the part of the life of the residents, they will go to this area in daily life. '''

== Rationale: Why is this case interesting? ==

This area is situated in the eastern of the city Chengdu, it has a rich cultural connotation and special industrial history connecting with the city,the years of half a century ago.In the beginning of 1950s, Chengdu became one of the most important electronic industrial base in China, after 1960s many national factories were founded in this area and produced many components of the television, radio, and some part of the military machine. From 90s the new electronic products and IT industry were developing so fast,therefore the factories reduced to manufacture of products, until 2010s all of the factories were disused. We can also find a railway in this area, because at that time people transported the completed product to all the country by train,and the departure was the department of the factory.
There is a river through this area, and also have a small wetland by the side of the river. Surrounding this area,many residents who worked in these factories before live there,and also there are some institutional establishment, school and transportation.

== Author's perspective ==
Green infrastructure

I’m so interested in this area,because it’s a valuable place to create a green infrastructure and it has many individual element, which can man integrate and connect with each other by corridor and buffer.As we know,there are old disused buildings ,a river, some small wetland and some vacant place where it had factories before and removed already. I’d like to make a planning to create a new environment for the residents, it will be a great green infrastructure in the future. either the people or the animals will get the benefit from this area.It’s a public space, and constitute of the area include the aspects of ecology, reuse,economy,education and so on.

== Landscape and urban context of the case ==

'''Biogeography'''
This case is situated in the city of eastern suburbs Chengdu,the dominating terrain of this case is plains. Because the whole city is located at the western edge of the Sichuan Basin and sits on the Chengdu Plain and has an elevation ranging from 450 meters to 720 meters. Since ancient times, this city has been known as "the Abundant Land" owing to its fertile soil, favorable climate, and novel Dujiangyan Irrigation System. The urban area, features a few rivers, three of them being the Jin, Fu, and Sha Rivers. The river “Sha” flow through the area of the case.

'''Climate'''
Chengdu has four distinct seasons, with moderate rainfall concentrated mainly in the warmer months, and relieved from both sweltering summers and freezing winters.
Rainfall is common year-round but is the greatest in July and August, with very little of it in the cooler months. Chengdu also has one of the lowest annual sunshine totals nationally, and most days are cloudy and overcast even if without rain. This is especially so in the winter months, when it is typically interminably grey and dreary, compounding the poor air quality.

'''Cultural Features'''

we call it cultural, however, in my opinion this word when I used it in this city,it sounds like life style.
It is a positive city,and the residents know what is the life. They know how to enjoy and share the life. The life style is always slowly and comfortable.
<gallery caption= "daily life" widths="150px" heights="150px" perrow="3">
Image:Sheng.jpg|the life style of the residents

*<Traditional tea houses>

Traditional tea houses in Chengdu usually feature bamboo chairs and wooden tables and offer jasmine, green tea and biluochun tea.Modern tea houses can be spotted on almost every city corner. The price for tea varies from 5 RMB(0.7€) to several hundred. Besides tea and snacks, almost all tea houses offer Majiang sets, tables, and sometimes separate majiang rooms. Most locals go to tea houses to play majiang with friends. Some luxury tea houses in Chengdu also offer live entertainment such as Sichuan opera shows.

*<Theatre>

The regional opera is very popular in the city. the traditional performance named Chuanju, this is an ancient form of comedic drama involving dancing,singing,poetry and miming. The first detailed recorded opera was staged in the royal court of Shu Kingdom during the Three Kingdom Period(Chengdu was the center of the Shu kingdom at that period). And face-changing masks and fire breathing remain hallmarks of the Sichuan Opera.

*<Majiang>

Majiang has been an essential part of most local people's life. Almost every household in Chengdu has at least one set of majiang. People play majiang at home or in tea houses. On sunny days, the residents like to play majiang on the sidewalks, especially in the area nearby the Fu River. Most people play with money to make the game more exciting. Mahjong is the most popular entertainment choice among locals for several reasons. The main reason is that friends and families chat over mahjong tables, making majiang an important social vehicle.

*<Food>
<gallery caption= "Sichuan's Food" widths="150px" heights="150px" perrow="3">
Image: Food.jpg|the typical food in this region
</gallery>

Sichuan Food is very popular in China, even in the world. It's almost a food culture in this region.Traditional Sichuan Food is very spicy.
In every street you can find large or small restaurant, people love eating chill and sometimes they're willing to wait for a long time to have a dinner.
Chinese hot pot is typical food here,it was cooked with plenty of chill and sichuan pepper.There are so many fans for it.

'''overall character'''

The holistic area belongs industrial zone. Nowadays,half of the factories in this area were removed, rest of them were disused. Some residential building have been constructed nearby. The city become as large as before. there are four ring roads in this city, currently this area is located by the second ring road. Compare with the scale of Chengdu, the site of this case is not far from the center of city. People like living in inner city, it will cost small time on the way to their business.

'''History and Dynamics'''

Chengdu was inhabited over four thousand years ago and was an important center of a unique ancient culture.It is the only major city in China to have remained in the same location with the same name after more than 2000 years. In this case, I'd like to show some contemporary era of this city, the site of the case reflect the period of 1950s -2010s. I've narrated above.

== Rationale: Why is this case interesting? ==

This area is situated in the eastern of the city Chengdu, it has a rich cultural connotation and special industrial history connecting with the city,the years of half a century ago.In the beginning of 1950s, Chengdu became one of the most important electronic industrial base in China, after 1960s many national factories were founded in this area and produced many components of the television, radio, and some part of the military machine. From 90s the new electronic products and IT industry were developing so fast,therefore the factories reduced to manufacture of products, until 2010s all of the factories were disused. We can also find a railway in this area, because at that time people transported the completed product to all the country by train,and the departure was the department of the factory.
There is a river through this area, and also have a small wetland by the side of the river. Surrounding this area,many residents who worked in these factories before live there,and also there are some institutional establishment, school and transportation.

== Author's perspective ==
Green infrastructure

I’m so interested in this area,because it’s a valuable place to create a green infrastructure and it has many individual element, which can man integrate and connect with each other by corridor and buffer.As we know,there are old disused buildings ,a river, some small wetland and some vacant place where it had factories before and removed already. I’d like to make a planning to create a new environment for the residents, it will be a great green infrastructure in the future. either the people or the animals will get the benefit from this area.It’s a public space, and constitute of the area include the aspects of ecology, reuse,economy,education and so on.

== Landscape and urban context of the case ==

'''Biogeography'''
This case is situated in the city of eastern suburbs Chengdu,the dominating terrain of this case is plains. Because the whole city is located at the western edge of the Sichuan Basin and sits on the Chengdu Plain and has an elevation ranging from 450 meters to 720 meters. Since ancient times, this city has been known as "the Abundant Land" owing to its fertile soil, favorable climate, and novel Dujiangyan Irrigation System. The urban area, features a few rivers, three of them being the Jin, Fu, and Sha Rivers. The river “Sha” flow through the area of the case.

'''Climate'''
Chengdu has four distinct seasons, with moderate rainfall concentrated mainly in the warmer months, and relieved from both sweltering summers and freezing winters.
Rainfall is common year-round but is the greatest in July and August, with very little of it in the cooler months. Chengdu also has one of the lowest annual sunshine totals nationally, and most days are cloudy and overcast even if without rain. This is especially so in the winter months, when it is typically interminably grey and dreary, compounding the poor air quality.

'''Cultural Features'''

we call it cultural, however, in my opinion this word when I used it in this city,it sounds like life style.
It is a positive city,and the residents know what is the life. They know how to enjoy and share the life. The life style is always slowly and comfortable.

*<Traditional tea houses>

Traditional tea houses in Chengdu usually feature bamboo chairs and wooden tables and offer jasmine, green tea and biluochun tea.Modern tea houses can be spotted on almost every city corner. The price for tea varies from 5 RMB(0.7€) to several hundred. Besides tea and snacks, almost all tea houses offer Majiang sets, tables, and sometimes separate majiang rooms. Most locals go to tea houses to play majiang with friends. Some luxury tea houses in Chengdu also offer live entertainment such as Sichuan opera shows.

*<Theatre>

The regional opera is very popular in the city. the traditional performance named Chuanju, this is an ancient form of comedic drama involving dancing,singing,poetry and miming. The first detailed recorded opera was staged in the royal court of Shu Kingdom during the Three Kingdom Period(Chengdu was the center of the Shu kingdom at that period). And face-changing masks and fire breathing remain hallmarks of the Sichuan Opera.

*<Majiang>

Majiang has been an essential part of most local people's life. Almost every household in Chengdu has at least one set of majiang. People play majiang at home or in tea houses. On sunny days, the residents like to play majiang on the sidewalks, especially in the area nearby the Fu River. Most people play with money to make the game more exciting. Mahjong is the most popular entertainment choice among locals for several reasons. The main reason is that friends and families chat over mahjong tables, making majiang an important social vehicle.

*<Food>
<gallery caption= "Sichuan's Food" widths="150px" heights="150px" perrow="3">
Image: Food.jpg|the typical food in this region
</gallery>

Sichuan Food is very popular in China, even in the world. It's almost a food culture in this region.Traditional Sichuan Food is very spicy.
In every street you can find large or small restaurant, people love eating chill and sometimes they're willing to wait for a long time to have a dinner.
Chinese hot pot is typical food here,it was cooked with plenty of chill and sichuan pepper.There are so many fans for it.

'''overall character'''

The holistic area belongs industrial zone. Nowadays,half of the factories in this area were removed, rest of them were disused. Some residential building have been constructed nearby. The city become as large as before. there are four ring roads in this city, currently this area is located by the second ring road. Compare with the scale of Chengdu, the site of this case is not far from the center of city. People like living in inner city, it will cost small time on the way to their business.

'''History and Dynamics'''

Chengdu was inhabited over four thousand years ago and was an important center of a unique ancient culture.It is the only major city in China to have remained in the same location with the same name after more than 2000 years. In this case, I'd like to show some contemporary era of this city, the site of the case reflect the period of 1950s -2010s. I've narrated above.

== Green Infrastructure benefits for this site ==
''Look again at the multiple benefits of green infrastructure - what could be achieved in your site and which are most relevant?''

As we know, it has some of vacancy place, disused factories, some residential buildings and a small green land by river in this site.how to reuse the old architecture of the factories, how to combine and integrate the individual element. In this case, it will be achieved as a public space and benefit for the residents,the creature and the ecological environment. And it also will improve the economy of the city.

== Potential for multifunctionality ==
''Green infrastructure has typically multiple functions. What could be achieved for your site in this respect?''

'''The aspect of social'''

<Reuse>
One of the oldest city of China, Chengdu is full of particular culture by herself. The old factories are in good condition to be use as a cultural center. In special industrial period of Chengdu should not be forget in the future, it should be a place of preserving the industrial memory. Not only the older, but also the new generation can learn more about the city of Chengdu and the eastern suburbs industrial history.
Some part of the old factory can redecoration to a theater, communication space,cineme and Gallery exhibition. Some of it can redecoration to tea houses and local restaurants,that’s a part of the life of the residents,and it brings and rises the economy.

'''The aspect of ecology'''

<Greenbelt>
Connecting the dispersed green land to form a greenbelt of the area.
Add the green wall and green way to prevent and control the noise and the clean the air pollution.
Building a wandering way in the greenbelt,people can do some sports too. It will be a place where can make a healthy life for the residents.

'''The aspect of hydrology'''

<Water management>
The Sha river is the main river in the city, the land of the surrounding river is a perfect habitant for the creature. From the ecological point of view, keep the river out of pollution, and enhance the rate of the green to is the right direct to approach the sustainable.

== Projective drawings ==
* ''How would you like this case to change in the near future? (in 1-2 years)''
** ''I hope in the first 1-2 years,the green wall can be built,it can make the air clearer and reduce the noise, and I hope some of the planning of the factories can be redecoration and reused as the communication center. The residents will own a public place to do something with their family and friends or can make new friends in some events .Planting more plants in this area, especially nearby the river.'

* ''And how could it look like in 10-15 years?''
** ''In 10-15 years, the condition of the environment of the greenbelt will be reinforced,it can also improve the habitat of the creature and increase more species and ensuring the diverse of the species by the river. This area will be the part of the life of the residents, they will go to this area in daily life. '''

This case is situated in the city of eastern suburbs Chengdu,the dominating terrain of this case is plains. Because the whole city is located at the western edge of the Sichuan Basin and sits on the Chengdu Plain and has an elevation ranging from 450 meters to 720 meters. Since ancient times, this city has been known as "the Abundant Land" owing to its fertile soil, favorable climate, and novel Dujiangyan Irrigation System.

*<Traditional tea houses>

Traditional tea houses in Chengdu usually feature bamboo chairs and wooden tables and offer jasmine, green tea and biluochun tea.Modern tea houses can be spotted on almost every city corner. The price for tea varies from 5 RMB(0.7€) to several hundred. Besides tea and snacks, almost all tea houses offer Majiang sets, tables, and sometimes separate majiang rooms. Most locals go to tea houses to play majiang with friends. Some luxury tea houses in Chengdu also offer live entertainment such as Sichuan opera shows.

*<Theatre>

The regional opera is very popular in the city. the traditional performance named Chuanju, this is an ancient form of comedic drama involving dancing,singing,poetry and miming. The first detailed recorded opera was staged in the royal court of Shu Kingdom during the Three Kingdom Period(Chengdu was the center of the Shu kingdom at that period). And face-changing masks and fire breathing remain hallmarks of the Sichuan Opera.

*<Majiang>

Majiang has been an essential part of most local people's life. Almost every household in Chengdu has at least one set of majiang. People play majiang at home or in tea houses. On sunny days, the residents like to play majiang on the sidewalks, especially in the area nearby the Fu River. Most people play with money to make the game more exciting. Mahjong is the most popular entertainment choice among locals for several reasons. The main reason is that friends and families chat over mahjong tables, making majiang an important social vehicle.

Chinese hot pot is typical food here,it was cooked with plenty of chill and sichuan pepper.There are so many fans for it.

'''overall character'''

The holistic area belongs industrial zone. Nowadays,half of the factories in this area were removed, rest of them were disused. Some residential building have been constructed nearby. The city become as large as before. there are four ring roads in this city, currently this area is located by the second ring road. Compare with the scale of Chengdu, the site of this case is not far from the center of city. People like living in inner city, it will cost small time on the way to their business.

'''History and Dynamics'''

Chengdu was inhabited over four thousand years ago and was an important center of a unique ancient culture.It is the only major city in China to have remained in the same location with the same name after more than 2000 years. In this case, I'd like to show some contemporary era of this city, the site of the case reflect the period of 1950s -2010s. I've narrated above.

== Green Infrastructure benefits for this site ==
''Look again at the multiple benefits of green infrastructure - what could be achieved in your site and which are most relevant?''

As we know, it has some of vacancy place, disused factories, some residential buildings and a small green land by river in this site.how to reuse the old architecture of the factories, how to combine and integrate the individual element. In this case, it will be achieved as a public space and benefit for the residents,the creature and the ecological environment. And it also will improve the economy of the city.

== Potential for multifunctionality ==
''Green infrastructure has typically multiple functions. What could be achieved for your site in this respect?''

'''The aspect of social'''

<Reuse>
One of the oldest city of China, Chengdu is full of particular culture by herself. The old factories are in good condition to be use as a cultural center. In special industrial period of Chengdu should not be forget in the future, it should be a place of preserving the industrial memory. Not only the older, but also the new generation can learn more about the city of Chengdu and the eastern suburbs industrial history.
Some part of the old factory can redecoration to a theater, communication space,cineme and Gallery exhibition. Some of it can redecoration to tea houses and local restaurants,that’s a part of the life of the residents,and it brings and rises the economy.

'''The aspect of ecology'''

<Greenbelt>
Connecting the dispersed green land to form a greenbelt of the area.
Add the green wall and green way to prevent and control the noise and the clean the air pollution.

'''The aspect of hydrology'''

<Water management>
The Sha river is the main river in the city, the land of the surrounding river is a perfect habitant for the creature. From the ecological point of view, keep the river out of pollution, and enhance the rate of the green to is the right direct to approach the sustainable.

== Projective drawings ==

** ''I hope in the first 1-2 years,the green wall can be built,it can make the air clearer and reduce the noise, and I hope some of the planning of the factories can be redecoration and reused as the communication center. The residents will own a public place to do something with their family and friends or can make new friends in some events .Planting more plants in this area, especially nearby the river.'

* ''And how could it look like in 10-15 years?''
** ''In 10-15 years, the condition of the environment of the greenbelt will be reinforced,it can also improve the habitat of the creature and increase more species and ensuring the diverse of the species by the river. This area will be the part of the life of the residents, they will go to this area in daily life. '''

== Rationale: Why is this case interesting? ==

This area is situated in the eastern of the city Chengdu, it has a rich cultural connotation and special industrial history connecting with the city,the years of half a century ago.In the beginning of 1950s, Chengdu became one of the most important electronic industrial base in China, after 1960s many national factories were founded in this area and produced many components of the television, radio, and some part of the military machine. From 90s the new electronic products and IT industry were developing so fast,therefore the factories reduced to manufacture of products, until 2010s all of the factories were disused. We can also find a railway in this area, because at that time people transported the completed product to all the country by train,and the departure was the department of the factory.
There is a river through this area, and also have a small wetland by the side of the river. Surrounding this area,many residents who worked in these factories before live there,and also there are some institutional establishment, school and transportation.

== Author's perspective ==
Green infrastructure

I’m so interested in this area,because it’s a valuable place to create a green infrastructure and it has many individual element, which can man integrate and connect with each other by corridor and buffer.As we know,there are old disused buildings ,a river, some small wetland and some vacant place where it had factories before and removed already. I’d like to make a planning to create a new environment for the residents, it will be a great green infrastructure in the future. either the people or the animals will get the benefit from this area.It’s a public space, and constitute of the area include the aspects of ecology, reuse,economy,education and so on.

== Landscape and urban context of the case ==

'''Biogeography'''
This case is situated in the city of eastern suburbs Chengdu,the dominating terrain of this case is plains. Because the whole city is located at the western edge of the Sichuan Basin and sits on the Chengdu Plain and has an elevation ranging from 450 meters to 720 meters. Since ancient times, this city has been known as "the Abundant Land" owing to its fertile soil, favorable climate, and novel Dujiangyan Irrigation System. The urban area, features a few rivers, three of them being the Jin, Fu, and Sha Rivers. The river “Sha” flow through the area of the case.

'''Climate'''
Chengdu has four distinct seasons, with moderate rainfall concentrated mainly in the warmer months, and relieved from both sweltering summers and freezing winters.
Rainfall is common year-round but is the greatest in July and August, with very little of it in the cooler months. Chengdu also has one of the lowest annual sunshine totals nationally, and most days are cloudy and overcast even if without rain. This is especially so in the winter months, when it is typically interminably grey and dreary, compounding the poor air quality.

'''Cultural Features'''

we call it cultural, however, in my opinion this word when I used it in this city,it sounds like life style.
It is a positive city,and the residents know what is the life. They know how to enjoy and share the life. The life style is always slowly and comfortable.

*<Traditional tea houses>

Traditional tea houses in Chengdu usually feature bamboo chairs and wooden tables and offer jasmine, green tea and biluochun tea.Modern tea houses can be spotted on almost every city corner. The price for tea varies from 5 RMB(0.7€) to several hundred. Besides tea and snacks, almost all tea houses offer Majiang sets, tables, and sometimes separate majiang rooms. Most locals go to tea houses to play majiang with friends. Some luxury tea houses in Chengdu also offer live entertainment such as Sichuan opera shows.

*<Theatre>

The regional opera is very popular in the city. the traditional performance named Chuanju, this is an ancient form of comedic drama involving dancing,singing,poetry and miming. The first detailed recorded opera was staged in the royal court of Shu Kingdom during the Three Kingdom Period(Chengdu was the center of the Shu kingdom at that period). And face-changing masks and fire breathing remain hallmarks of the Sichuan Opera.

*<Majiang>

Majiang has been an essential part of most local people's life. Almost every household in Chengdu has at least one set of majiang. People play majiang at home or in tea houses. On sunny days, the residents like to play majiang on the sidewalks, especially in the area nearby the Fu River. Most people play with money to make the game more exciting. Mahjong is the most popular entertainment choice among locals for several reasons. The main reason is that friends and families chat over mahjong tables, making majiang an important social vehicle.

== Rationale: Why is this case interesting? ==

This area is situated in the eastern of the city Chengdu, it has a rich cultural connotation and special industrial history connecting with the city,the years of half a century ago.In the beginning of 1950s, Chengdu became one of the most important electronic industrial base in China, after 1960s many national factories were founded in this area and produced many components of the television, radio, and some part of the military machine. From 90s the new electronic products and IT industry were developing so fast,therefore the factories reduced to manufacture of products, until 2010s all of the factories were disused. We can also find a railway in this area, because at that time people transported the completed product to all the country by train,and the departure was the department of the factory.
There is a river through this area, and also have a small wetland by the side of the river. Surrounding this area,many residents who worked in these factories before live there,and also there are some institutional establishment, school and transportation.

== Author's perspective ==
Green infrastructure

I’m so interested in this area,because it’s a valuable place to create a green infrastructure and it has many individual element, which can man integrate and connect with each other by corridor and buffer.As we know,there are old disused buildings ,a river, some small wetland and some vacant place where it had factories before and removed already. I’d like to make a planning to create a new environment for the residents, it will be a great green infrastructure in the future. either the people or the animals will get the benefit from this area.It’s a public space, and constitute of the area include the aspects of ecology, reuse,economy,education and so on.

== Landscape and urban context of the case ==

'''Biogeography'''
This case is situated in the city of eastern suburbs Chengdu,the dominating terrain of this case is plains. Because the whole city is located at the western edge of the Sichuan Basin and sits on the Chengdu Plain and has an elevation ranging from 450 meters to 720 meters. Since ancient times, this city has been known as "the Abundant Land" owing to its fertile soil, favorable climate, and novel Dujiangyan Irrigation System. The urban area, features a few rivers, three of them being the Jin, Fu, and Sha Rivers. The river “Sha” flow through the area of the case.

'''Climate'''
Chengdu has four distinct seasons, with moderate rainfall concentrated mainly in the warmer months, and relieved from both sweltering summers and freezing winters.
Rainfall is common year-round but is the greatest in July and August, with very little of it in the cooler months. Chengdu also has one of the lowest annual sunshine totals nationally, and most days are cloudy and overcast even if without rain. This is especially so in the winter months, when it is typically interminably grey and dreary, compounding the poor air quality.

'''Cultural Features'''

we call it cultural, however, in my opinion this word when I used it in this city,it sounds like life style.
It is a positive city,and the residents know what is the life. They know how to enjoy and share the life. The life style is always slowly and comfortable.

*<Traditional tea houses>

Traditional tea houses in Chengdu usually feature bamboo chairs and wooden tables and offer jasmine, green tea and biluochun tea.Modern tea houses can be spotted on almost every city corner. The price for tea varies from 5 RMB(0.7€) to several hundred. Besides tea and snacks, almost all tea houses offer Majiang sets, tables, and sometimes separate majiang rooms. Most locals go to tea houses to play majiang with friends. Some luxury tea houses in Chengdu also offer live entertainment such as Sichuan opera shows.

*<Theatre>

The regional opera is very popular in the city. the traditional performance named Chuanju, this is an ancient form of comedic drama involving dancing,singing,poetry and miming. The first detailed recorded opera was staged in the royal court of Shu Kingdom during the Three Kingdom Period(Chengdu was the center of the Shu kingdom at that period). And face-changing masks and fire breathing remain hallmarks of the Sichuan Opera.

*<Majiang>

Majiang has been an essential part of most local people's life. Almost every household in Chengdu has at least one set of majiang. People play majiang at home or in tea houses. On sunny days, the residents like to play majiang on the sidewalks, especially in the area nearby the Fu River. Most people play with money to make the game more exciting. Mahjong is the most popular entertainment choice among locals for several reasons. The main reason is that friends and families chat over mahjong tables, making majiang an important social vehicle.

*<Food>
<gallery caption= "Sichuan's Food" widths="150px" heights="150px" perrow="3">
Image: Food.jpg|the typical food in this region
</gallery>

Sichuan Food is very popular in China, even in the world. It's almost a food culture in this region.Traditional Sichuan Food is very spicy.
In every street you can find large or small restaurant, people love eating chill and sometimes they're willing to wait for a long time to have a dinner.
Chinese hot pot is typical food here,it was cooked with plenty of chill and sichuan pepper.There are so many fans for it.

'''overall character'''

The holistic area belongs industrial zone. Nowadays,half of the factories in this area were removed, rest of them were disused. Some residential building have been constructed nearby. The city become as large as before. there are four ring roads in this city, currently this area is located by the second ring road. Compare with the scale of Chengdu, the site of this case is not far from the center of city. People like living in inner city, it will cost small time on the way to their business.

'''History and Dynamics'''

Chengdu was inhabited over four thousand years ago and was an important center of a unique ancient culture.It is the only major city in China to have remained in the same location with the same name after more than 2000 years. In this case, I'd like to show some contemporary era of this city, the site of the case reflect the period of 1950s -2010s. I've narrated above.

== Green Infrastructure benefits for this site ==
''Look again at the multiple benefits of green infrastructure - what could be achieved in your site and which are most relevant?''

As we know, it has some of vacancy place, disused factories, some residential buildings and a small green land by river in this site.how to reuse the old architecture of the factories, how to combine and integrate the individual element. I’d like to make plan, and it will be a public space and benefit for the resident and local creature.

'''The benefit for the aspect of culture'''

'''<Reuse>'''
One of the oldest city of China, Chengdu is full of particular culture by herself. The old factories are in good condition to be use as a cultural center. In special industrial period of Chengdu should not be forget in the future, it should be a place of preserving the industrial memory. Not only the older, but also the new generation can learn more about the city of Chengdu and the eastern suburbs industrial history.
Some part of the old factory can redecoration to a theater, communication space,and Gallery exhibition. Some of it can redecoration to tea houses and local restaurants,that’s a part of the life of the residents,and it brings some rise of economy.

'''The benefit for the aspect of environment'''

'''<Greenbelt>'''
Connecting the dispersed green land to form a greenbelt of the area.
Add the green wall and green way to prevent and control the noise and the clean the air pollution.

'''The benefit for the aspect of ecology'''

'''<Water management>'''
The Sha river is the main river in the city, the land of the surrounding river is a perfect habitant for the creature. From the ecological point of view, keep the river out of pollution, and enhance the rate of the green to is the right direct to approach the sustainable.

== Potential for multifunctionality ==
''Green infrastructure has typically multiple functions. What could be achieved for your site in this respect?''
Reuse the building can save finance and need not cost fee to build some new,and also keep the resource.

== Projective drawings ==
* ''How would you like this case to change in the near future? (in 1-2 years)''
** ''I hope in the first 1-2 years,the green wall can be built,it can make the air clearer and reduce the noise, and I hope some of the planning of the factories can be redecoration and reused as the communication center. The residents will own a public place to do something with their family and friends or can make new friends in some events .Planting more plants in this area, especially nearby the river.'

* ''And how could it look like in 10-15 years?''
** ''In 10-15 years, the condition of the environment of the greenbelt will be reinforced,it can also improve the habitat of the creature and increase more species and ensuring the diverse of the species by the river. This area will be the part of the life of the residents, they will go to this area in daily life. '''

== Summary and conclusion ==
*''It's very interesting, when we reuse some old thing. Time flies, everything will be change, but the architecture will remember the history. If we don't destroy them, we will remind the special and important period of the city generation by generation.''

Majiang has been an essential part of most local people's life. Almost every household in Chengdu has at least one set of majiang. People play majiang at home or in tea houses. On sunny days, the residents like to play majiang on the sidewalks, especially in the area nearby the Fu River. Most people play with money to make the game more exciting. Mahjong is the most popular entertainment choice among locals for several reasons. The main reason is that friends and families chat over mahjong tables, making majiang an important social vehicle.

Chinese hot pot is typical food here,it was cooked with plenty of chill and sichuan pepper.There are so many fans for it.

'''overall character'''

The holistic area belongs industrial zone. Nowadays,half of the factories in this area were removed, rest of them were disused. Some residential building have been constructed nearby. The city become as large as before. there are four ring roads in this city, currently this area is located by the second ring road. Compare with the scale of Chengdu, the site of this case is not far from the center of city. People like living in inner city, it will cost small time on the way to their business.

'''History and Dynamics'''

Chengdu was inhabited over four thousand years ago and was an important center of a unique ancient culture.It is the only major city in China to have remained in the same location with the same name after more than 2000 years. In this case, I'd like to show some contemporary era of this city, the site of the case reflect the period of 1950s -2010s. I've narrated above.

== Green Infrastructure benefits for this site ==
''Look again at the multiple benefits of green infrastructure - what could be achieved in your site and which are most relevant?''

As we know, it has some of vacancy place, disused factories, some residential buildings and a small green land by river in this site.how to reuse the old architecture of the factories, how to combine and integrate the individual element. I’d like to make plan, and it will be a public space and benefit for the resident and local creature.

'''The benefit for the aspect of culture'''

'''<Reuse>'''
One of the oldest city of China, Chengdu is full of particular culture by herself. The old factories are in good condition to be use as a cultural center. In special industrial period of Chengdu should not be forget in the future, it should be a place of preserving the industrial memory. Not only the older, but also the new generation can learn more about the city of Chengdu and the eastern suburbs industrial history.
Some part of the old factory can redecoration to a theater, communication space,and Gallery exhibition. Some of it can redecoration to tea houses and local restaurants,that’s a part of the life of the residents,and it brings some rise of economy.

'''The benefit for the aspect of environment'''

'''<Greenbelt>'''
Connecting the dispersed green land to form a greenbelt of the area.
Add the green wall and green way to prevent and control the noise and the clean the air pollution.

'''The benefit for the aspect of ecology'''

'''<Water management>'''
The Sha river is the main river in the city, the land of the surrounding river is a perfect habitant for the creature. From the ecological point of view, keep the river out of pollution, and enhance the rate of the green to is the right direct to approach the sustainable.

== Potential for multifunctionality ==
''Green infrastructure has typically multiple functions. What could be achieved for your site in this respect?''
Reuse the building can save finance and need not cost fee to build some new,and also keep the resource.

== Projective drawings ==
* ''How would you like this case to change in the near future? (in 1-2 years)''
** ''I hope in the first 1-2 years,the green wall can be built,it can make the air clearer and reduce the noise, and I hope some of the planning of the factories can be redecoration and reused as the communication center. The residents will own a public place to do something with their family and friends or can make new friends in some events .Planting more plants in this area, especially nearby the river.'

* ''And how could it look like in 10-15 years?''
** ''In 10-15 years, the condition of the environment of the greenbelt will be reinforced,it can also improve the habitat of the creature and increase more species and ensuring the diverse of the species by the river. This area will be the part of the life of the residents, they will go to this area in daily life. '''

== Rationale: Why is this case interesting? ==

This area is situated in the eastern of the city Chengdu, it has a rich cultural connotation and special industrial history connecting with the city,the years of half a century ago.In the beginning of 1950s, Chengdu became one of the most important electronic industrial base in China, after 1960s many national factories were founded in this area and produced many components of the television, radio, and some part of the military machine. From 90s the new electronic products and IT industry were developing so fast,therefore the factories reduced to manufacture of products, until 2010s all of the factories were disused. We can also find a railway in this area, because at that time people transported the completed product to all the country by train,and the departure was the department of the factory.
There is a river through this area, and also have a small wetland by the side of the river. Surrounding this area,many residents who worked in these factories before live there,and also there are some institutional establishment, school and transportation.

== Author's perspective ==
Green infrastructure

I’m so interested in this area,because it’s a valuable place to create a green infrastructure and it has many individual element, which can man integrate and connect with each other by corridor and buffer.As we know,there are old disused buildings ,a river, some small wetland and some vacant place where it had factories before and removed already. I’d like to make a planning to create a new environment for the residents, it will be a great green infrastructure in the future. either the people or the animals will get the benefit from this area.It’s a public space, and constitute of the area include the aspects of ecology, reuse,economy,education and so on.

== Landscape and urban context of the case ==

'''Biogeography'''
This case is situated in the city of eastern suburbs Chengdu,the dominating terrain of this case is plains. Because the whole city is located at the western edge of the Sichuan Basin and sits on the Chengdu Plain and has an elevation ranging from 450 meters to 720 meters. Since ancient times, this city has been known as "the Abundant Land" owing to its fertile soil, favorable climate, and novel Dujiangyan Irrigation System. The urban area, features a few rivers, three of them being the Jin, Fu, and Sha Rivers. The river “Sha” flow through the area of the case.

'''Climate'''
Chengdu has four distinct seasons, with moderate rainfall concentrated mainly in the warmer months, and relieved from both sweltering summers and freezing winters.
Rainfall is common year-round but is the greatest in July and August, with very little of it in the cooler months. Chengdu also has one of the lowest annual sunshine totals nationally, and most days are cloudy and overcast even if without rain. This is especially so in the winter months, when it is typically interminably grey and dreary, compounding the poor air quality.

'''Cultural Features'''

we call it cultural, however, in my opinion this word when I used it in this city,it sounds like life style.
It is a positive city,and the residents know what is the life. They know how to enjoy and share the life. The life style is always slowly and comfortable.

*<Traditional tea houses>

Traditional tea houses in Chengdu usually feature bamboo chairs and wooden tables and offer jasmine, green tea and biluochun tea.Modern tea houses can be spotted on almost every city corner. The price for tea varies from 5 RMB(0.7€) to several hundred. Besides tea and snacks, almost all tea houses offer Majiang sets, tables, and sometimes separate majiang rooms. Most locals go to tea houses to play majiang with friends. Some luxury tea houses in Chengdu also offer live entertainment such as Sichuan opera shows.

*<Theatre>

The regional opera is very popular in the city. the traditional performance named Chuanju, this is an ancient form of comedic drama involving dancing,singing,poetry and miming. The first detailed recorded opera was staged in the royal court of Shu Kingdom during the Three Kingdom Period(Chengdu was the center of the Shu kingdom at that period). And face-changing masks and fire breathing remain hallmarks of the Sichuan Opera.

*<Majiang>

Majiang has been an essential part of most local people's life. Almost every household in Chengdu has at least one set of majiang. People play majiang at home or in tea houses.

== Rationale: Why is this case interesting? ==

This area is situated in the eastern of the city Chengdu, it has a rich cultural connotation and special industrial history connecting with the city,the years of half a century ago.In the beginning of 1950s, Chengdu became one of the most important electronic industrial base in China, after 1960s many national factories were founded in this area and produced many components of the television, radio, and some part of the military machine. From 90s the new electronic products and IT industry were developing so fast,therefore the factories reduced to manufacture of products, until 2010s all of the factories were disused. We can also find a railway in this area, because at that time people transported the completed product to all the country by train,and the departure was the department of the factory.
There is a river through this area, and also have a small wetland by the side of the river. Surrounding this area,many residents who worked in these factories before live there,and also there are some institutional establishment, school and transportation.

== Author's perspective ==
Green infrastructure

I’m so interested in this area,because it’s a valuable place to create a green infrastructure and it has many individual element, which can man integrate and connect with each other by corridor and buffer.As we know,there are old disused buildings ,a river, some small wetland and some vacant place where it had factories before and removed already. I’d like to make a planning to create a new environment for the residents, it will be a great green infrastructure in the future. either the people or the animals will get the benefit from this area.It’s a public space, and constitute of the area include the aspects of ecology, reuse,economy,education and so on.

== Landscape and urban context of the case ==

'''Biogeography'''
This case is situated in the city of eastern suburbs Chengdu,the dominating terrain of this case is plains. Because the whole city is located at the western edge of the Sichuan Basin and sits on the Chengdu Plain and has an elevation ranging from 450 meters to 720 meters. Since ancient times, this city has been known as "the Abundant Land" owing to its fertile soil, favorable climate, and novel Dujiangyan Irrigation System. The urban area, features a few rivers, three of them being the Jin, Fu, and Sha Rivers. The river “Sha” flow through the area of the case.

'''Climate'''
Chengdu has four distinct seasons, with moderate rainfall concentrated mainly in the warmer months, and relieved from both sweltering summers and freezing winters.
Rainfall is common year-round but is the greatest in July and August, with very little of it in the cooler months. Chengdu also has one of the lowest annual sunshine totals nationally, and most days are cloudy and overcast even if without rain. This is especially so in the winter months, when it is typically interminably grey and dreary, compounding the poor air quality.

'''Cultural Features'''

we call it cultural, however, in my opinion this word when I used it in this city,it sounds like life style.
It is a positive city,and the residents know what is the life. They know how to enjoy and share the life. The life style is always slowly and comfortable.

*<Traditional tea houses>

Traditional tea houses in Chengdu usually feature bamboo chairs and wooden tables and offer jasmine, green tea and biluochun tea.Modern tea houses can be spotted on almost every city corner. The price for tea varies from 5 RMB(0.7€) to several hundred. Besides tea and snacks, almost all tea houses offer Majiang sets, tables, and sometimes separate majiang rooms. Most locals go to tea houses to play majiang with friends. Some luxury tea houses in Chengdu also offer live entertainment such as Sichuan opera shows.

*<Theatre>

The regional opera is very popular in the city. the traditional performance named Chuanju, this is an ancient form of comedic drama involving dancing,singing,poetry and miming. The first detailed recorded opera was staged in the royal court of Shu Kingdom during the Three Kingdom Period(Chengdu was the center of the Shu kingdom at that period). And face-changing masks and fire breathing remain hallmarks of the Sichuan Opera.

*<Majiang>

Majiang has been an essential part of most local people's life. Almost every household in Chengdu has at least one set of majiang. People play majiang at home or in tea houses. On sunny days, the residents like to play majiang on the sidewalks, especially in the area nearby the Fu River. Most people play with money to make the game more exciting. Mahjong is the most popular entertainment choice among locals for several reasons. The main reason is that friends and families chat over mahjong tables, making majiang an important social vehicle.

*<Food>
<gallery caption= "Sichuan's Food" widths="150px" heights="150px" perrow="3">
Image: Food.jpg|the typical food in this region
</gallery>

Sichuan Food is very popular in China, even in the world. It's almost a food culture in this region.Traditional Sichuan Food is very spicy.
In every street you can find large or small restaurant, people love eating chill and sometimes they're willing to wait for a long time to have a dinner.
Chinese hot pot is typical food here,it was cooked with plenty of chill and sichuan pepper.There are so many fans for it.

'''overall character'''

The holistic area belongs industrial zone. Nowadays,half of the factories in this area were removed, rest of them were disused. Some residential building have been constructed nearby. The city become as large as before. there are four ring roads in this city, currently this area is located by the second ring road. Compare with the scale of Chengdu, the site of this case is not far from the center of city. People like living in inner city, it will cost small time on the way to their business.

'''History and Dynamics'''

Chengdu was inhabited over four thousand years ago and was an important center of a unique ancient culture.It is the only major city in China to have remained in the same location with the same name after more than 2000 years. In this case, I'd like to show some contemporary era of this city, the site of the case reflect the period of 1950s -2010s. I've narrated above.

== Green Infrastructure benefits for this site ==
''Look again at the multiple benefits of green infrastructure - what could be achieved in your site and which are most relevant?''

As we know, it has some of vacancy place, disused factories, some residential buildings and a small green land by river in this site.how to reuse the old architecture of the factories, how to combine and integrate the individual element. I’d like to make plan, and it will be a public space and benefit for the resident and local creature.

'''The benefit for the aspect of culture'''

'''<Reuse>'''
One of the oldest city of China, Chengdu is full of particular culture by herself. The old factories are in good condition to be use as a cultural center. In special industrial period of Chengdu should not be forget in the future, it should be a place of preserving the industrial memory. Not only the older, but also the new generation can learn more about the city of Chengdu and the eastern suburbs industrial history.
Some part of the old factory can redecoration to a theater, communication space,and Gallery exhibition. Some of it can redecoration to tea houses and local restaurants,that’s a part of the life of the residents,and it brings some rise of economy.

'''The benefit for the aspect of environment'''

'''<Greenbelt>'''
Connecting the dispersed green land to form a greenbelt of the area.
Add the green wall and green way to prevent and control the noise and the clean the air pollution.

'''The benefit for the aspect of ecology'''

'''<Water management>'''
The Sha river is the main river in the city, the land of the surrounding river is a perfect habitant for the creature. From the ecological point of view, keep the river out of pollution, and enhance the rate of the green to is the right direct to approach the sustainable.

== Potential for multifunctionality ==
''Green infrastructure has typically multiple functions. What could be achieved for your site in this respect?''
Reuse the building can save finance and need not cost fee to build some new,and also keep the resource.

== Projective drawings ==
* ''How would you like this case to change in the near future? (in 1-2 years)''
** ''I hope in the first 1-2 years,the green wall can be built,it can make the air clearer and reduce the noise, and I hope some of the planning of the factories can be redecoration and reused as the communication center. The residents will own a public place to do something with their family and friends or can make new friends in some events .Planting more plants in this area, especially nearby the river.'

* ''And how could it look like in 10-15 years?''
** ''In 10-15 years, the condition of the environment of the greenbelt will be reinforced,it can also improve the habitat of the creature and increase more species and ensuring the diverse of the species by the river. This area will be the part of the life of the residents, they will go to this area in daily life. '''

The first detailed recorded opera was staged in the royal court of Shu Kingdom during the Three Kingdom Period(Chengdu was the center of the Shu kingdom at that period). And face-changing masks and fire breathing remain hallmarks of the Sichuan Opera.

*<Majiang>

Majiang has been an essential part of most local people's life. Almost every household in Chengdu has at least one set of majiang. People play majiang at home or in tea houses. On sunny days, the residents like to play majiang on the sidewalks, especially in the area nearby the Fu River. Most people play with money to make the game more exciting. Mahjong is the most popular entertainment choice among locals for several reasons. The main reason is that friends and families chat over mahjong tables, making majiang an important social vehicle.

Chinese hot pot is typical food here,it was cooked with plenty of chill and sichuan pepper.There are so many fans for it.

'''overall character'''

The holistic area belongs industrial zone. Nowadays,half of the factories in this area were removed, rest of them were disused. Some residential building have been constructed nearby. The city become as large as before. there are four ring roads in this city, currently this area is located by the second ring road. Compare with the scale of Chengdu, the site of this case is not far from the center of city. People like living in inner city, it will cost small time on the way to their business.

'''History and Dynamics'''

Chengdu was inhabited over four thousand years ago and was an important center of a unique ancient culture.It is the only major city in China to have remained in the same location with the same name after more than 2000 years. In this case, I'd like to show some contemporary era of this city, the site of the case reflect the period of 1950s -2010s. I've narrated above.

== Green Infrastructure benefits for this site ==
''Look again at the multiple benefits of green infrastructure - what could be achieved in your site and which are most relevant?''

As we know, it has some of vacancy place, disused factories, some residential buildings and a small green land by river in this site.how to reuse the old architecture of the factories, how to combine and integrate the individual element. I’d like to make plan, and it will be a public space and benefit for the resident and local creature.

'''The benefit for the aspect of culture'''

'''<Reuse>'''
One of the oldest city of China, Chengdu is full of particular culture by herself. The old factories are in good condition to be use as a cultural center. In special industrial period of Chengdu should not be forget in the future, it should be a place of preserving the industrial memory. Not only the older, but also the new generation can learn more about the city of Chengdu and the eastern suburbs industrial history.
Some part of the old factory can redecoration to a theater, communication space,and Gallery exhibition. Some of it can redecoration to tea houses and local restaurants,that’s a part of the life of the residents,and it brings some rise of economy.

'''The benefit for the aspect of environment'''

'''<Greenbelt>'''
Connecting the dispersed green land to form a greenbelt of the area.
Add the green wall and green way to prevent and control the noise and the clean the air pollution.

'''The benefit for the aspect of ecology'''

'''<Water management>'''
The Sha river is the main river in the city, the land of the surrounding river is a perfect habitant for the creature. From the ecological point of view, keep the river out of pollution, and enhance the rate of the green to is the right direct to approach the sustainable.

== Potential for multifunctionality ==
''Green infrastructure has typically multiple functions. What could be achieved for your site in this respect?''
Reuse the building can save finance and need not cost fee to build some new,and also keep the resource.

== Projective drawings ==
* ''How would you like this case to change in the near future? (in 1-2 years)''
** ''I hope in the first 1-2 years,the green wall can be built, some of the planning of the factories can be redecoration and reused as the communication center. ''

== Rationale: Why is this case interesting? ==

This area is situated in the eastern of the city Chengdu, it has a rich cultural connotation and special industrial history connecting with the city,the years of half a century ago.In the beginning of 1950s, Chengdu became one of the most important electronic industrial base in China, after 1960s many national factories were founded in this area and produced many components of the television, radio, and some part of the military machine. From 90s the new electronic products and IT industry were developing so fast,therefore the factories reduced to manufacture of products, until 2010s all of the factories were disused. We can also find a railway in this area, because at that time people transported the completed product to all the country by train,and the departure was the department of the factory.
There is a river through this area, and also have a small wetland by the side of the river. Surrounding this area,many residents who worked in these factories before live there,and also there are some institutional establishment, school and transportation.

== Author's perspective ==
Green infrastructure

I’m so interested in this area,because it’s a valuable place to create a green infrastructure and it has many individual element, which can man integrate and connect with each other by corridor and buffer.As we know,there are old disused buildings ,a river, some small wetland and some vacant place where it had factories before and removed already. I’d like to make a planning to create a new environment for the residents, it will be a great green infrastructure in the future. either the people or the animals will get the benefit from this area.It’s a public space, and constitute of the area include the aspects of ecology, reuse,economy,education and so on.

== Landscape and urban context of the case ==

'''Biogeography'''
This case is situated in the city of eastern suburbs Chengdu,the dominating terrain of this case is plains. Because the whole city is located at the western edge of the Sichuan Basin and sits on the Chengdu Plain and has an elevation ranging from 450 meters to 720 meters. Since ancient times, this city has been known as "the Abundant Land" owing to its fertile soil, favorable climate, and novel Dujiangyan Irrigation System. The urban area, features a few rivers, three of them being the Jin, Fu, and Sha Rivers. The river “Sha” flow through the area of the case.

'''Climate'''
Chengdu has four distinct seasons, with moderate rainfall concentrated mainly in the warmer months, and relieved from both sweltering summers and freezing winters.
Rainfall is common year-round but is the greatest in July and August, with very little of it in the cooler months. Chengdu also has one of the lowest annual sunshine totals nationally, and most days are cloudy and overcast even if without rain. This is especially so in the winter months, when it is typically interminably grey and dreary, compounding the poor air quality.

'''Cultural Features'''

we call it cultural, however, in my opinion this word when I used it in this city,it sounds like life style.
It is a positive city,and the residents know what is the life. They know how to enjoy and share the life. The life style is always slowly and comfortable.

*<Traditional tea houses>

Traditional tea houses in Chengdu usually feature bamboo chairs and wooden tables and offer jasmine, green tea and biluochun tea.Modern tea houses can be spotted on almost every city corner. The price for tea varies from 5 RMB(0.7€) to several hundred. Besides tea and snacks, almost all tea houses offer Majiang sets, tables, and sometimes separate majiang rooms. Most locals go to tea houses to play majiang with friends. Some luxury tea houses in Chengdu also offer live entertainment such as Sichuan opera shows.

*<Theatre>

The regional opera is very popular in the city. the traditional performance named Chuanju, this is an ancient form of comedic drama involving dancing,singing,poetry and miming.

== Rationale: Why is this case interesting? ==

This area is situated in the eastern of the city Chengdu, it has a rich cultural connotation and special industrial history connecting with the city,the years of half a century ago.In the beginning of 1950s, Chengdu became one of the most important electronic industrial base in China, after 1960s many national factories were founded in this area and produced many components of the television, radio, and some part of the military machine. From 90s the new electronic products and IT industry were developing so fast,therefore the factories reduced to manufacture of products, until 2010s all of the factories were disused. We can also find a railway in this area, because at that time people transported the completed product to all the country by train,and the departure was the department of the factory.
There is a river through this area, and also have a small wetland by the side of the river. Surrounding this area,many residents who worked in these factories before live there,and also there are some institutional establishment, school and transportation.

== Author's perspective ==
Green infrastructure

I’m so interested in this area,because it’s a valuable place to create a green infrastructure and it has many individual element, which can man integrate and connect with each other by corridor and buffer.As we know,there are old disused buildings ,a river, some small wetland and some vacant place where it had factories before and removed already. I’d like to make a planning to create a new environment for the residents, it will be a great green infrastructure in the future. either the people or the animals will get the benefit from this area.It’s a public space, and constitute of the area include the aspects of ecology, reuse,economy,education and so on.

== Landscape and urban context of the case ==

'''Biogeography'''
This case is situated in the city of eastern suburbs Chengdu,the dominating terrain of this case is plains. Because the whole city is located at the western edge of the Sichuan Basin and sits on the Chengdu Plain and has an elevation ranging from 450 meters to 720 meters. Since ancient times, this city has been known as "the Abundant Land" owing to its fertile soil, favorable climate, and novel Dujiangyan Irrigation System. The urban area, features a few rivers, three of them being the Jin, Fu, and Sha Rivers. The river “Sha” flow through the area of the case.

'''Climate'''
Chengdu has four distinct seasons, with moderate rainfall concentrated mainly in the warmer months, and relieved from both sweltering summers and freezing winters.
Rainfall is common year-round but is the greatest in July and August, with very little of it in the cooler months. Chengdu also has one of the lowest annual sunshine totals nationally, and most days are cloudy and overcast even if without rain. This is especially so in the winter months, when it is typically interminably grey and dreary, compounding the poor air quality.

'''Cultural Features'''

we call it cultural, however, in my opinion this word when I used it in this city,it sounds like life style.
It is a positive city,and the residents know what is the life. They know how to enjoy and share the life. The life style is always slowly and comfortable.

*<Traditional tea houses>

Traditional tea houses in Chengdu usually feature bamboo chairs and wooden tables and offer jasmine, green tea and biluochun tea.Modern tea houses can be spotted on almost every city corner. The price for tea varies from 5 RMB(0.7€) to several hundred. Besides tea and snacks, almost all tea houses offer Majiang sets, tables, and sometimes separate majiang rooms. Most locals go to tea houses to play majiang with friends. Some luxury tea houses in Chengdu also offer live entertainment such as Sichuan opera shows.

*<Theatre>

The regional opera is very popular in the city. the traditional performance named Chuanju, this is an ancient form of comedic drama involving dancing,singing,poetry and miming. The first detailed recorded opera was staged in the royal court of Shu Kingdom during the Three Kingdom Period(Chengdu was the center of the Shu kingdom at that period). And face-changing masks and fire breathing remain hallmarks of the Sichuan Opera.

*<Majiang>

Majiang has been an essential part of most local people's life. Almost every household in Chengdu has at least one set of majiang. People play majiang at home or in tea houses. On sunny days, the residents like to play majiang on the sidewalks, especially in the area nearby the Fu River. Most people play with money to make the game more exciting. Mahjong is the most popular entertainment choice among locals for several reasons. The main reason is that friends and families chat over mahjong tables, making majiang an important social vehicle.

*<Food>
<gallery caption= "Sichuan's Food" widths="150px" heights="150px" perrow="3">
Image: Food.jpg|the typical food in this region
</gallery>

Sichuan Food is very popular in China, even in the world. It's almost a food culture in this region.Traditional Sichuan Food is very spicy.
In every street you can find large or small restaurant, people love eating chill and sometimes they're willing to wait for a long time to have a dinner.
Chinese hot pot is typical food here,it was cooked with plenty of chill and sichuan pepper.There are so many fans for it.

'''overall character'''

The holistic area belongs industrial zone. Nowadays,half of the factories in this area were removed, rest of them were disused. Some residential building have been constructed nearby. The city become as large as before. there are four ring roads in this city, currently this area is located by the second ring road. Compare with the scale of Chengdu, the site of this case is not far from the center of city. People like living in inner city, it will cost small time on the way to their business.

'''History and Dynamics'''

Chengdu was inhabited over four thousand years ago and was an important center of a unique ancient culture.It is the only major city in China to have remained in the same location with the same name after more than 2000 years. In this case, I'd like to show some contemporary era of this city, the site of the case reflect the period of 1950s -2010s. I've narrated above.

== Green Infrastructure benefits for this site ==
''Look again at the multiple benefits of green infrastructure - what could be achieved in your site and which are most relevant?''

As we know, it has some of vacancy place, disused factories, some residential buildings and a small green land by river in this site.how to reuse the old architecture of the factories, how to combine and integrate the individual element. I’d like to make plan, and it will be a public space and benefit for the resident and local creature.

'''The benefit for the aspect of culture'''

'''<Reuse>'''
One of the oldest city of China, Chengdu is full of particular culture by herself. The old factories are in good condition to be use as a cultural center. In special industrial period of Chengdu should not be forget in the future, it should be a place of preserving the industrial memory. Not only the older, but also the new generation can learn more about the city of Chengdu and the eastern suburbs industrial history.
Some part of the old factory can redecoration to a theater, communication space,and Gallery exhibition. Some of it can redecoration to tea houses and local restaurants,that’s a part of the life of the residents,and it brings some rise of economy.

'''The benefit for the aspect of environment'''

'''<Greenbelt>'''
Connecting the dispersed green land to form a greenbelt of the area.
Add the green wall and green way to prevent and control the noise and the clean the air pollution.

'''The benefit for the aspect of ecology'''

'''<Water management>'''
The Sha river is the main river in the city, the land of the surrounding river is a perfect habitant for the creature. From the ecological point of view, keep the river out of pollution, and enhance the rate of the green to is the right direct to approach the sustainable.

== Potential for multifunctionality ==
''Green infrastructure has typically multiple functions. What could be achieved for your site in this respect?''
Reuse the building can save finance and need not cost fee to build some new,and also keep the resource.

== Projective drawings ==
* ''How would you like this case to change in the near future? (in 1-2 years)''
** ''I hope in the first 1-2 years,the green wall can be built, some of the planning of the factories can be redecoration and reused as the communication center. ''

* ''And how could it look like in 10-15 years?''
** ''you may add a short explanation here''

== Rationale: Why is this case interesting? ==

This area is situated in the eastern of the city Chengdu, it has a rich cultural connotation and special industrial history connecting with the city,the years of half a century ago.In the beginning of 1950s, Chengdu became one of the most important electronic industrial base in China, after 1960s many national factories were founded in this area and produced many components of the television, radio, and some part of the military machine. From 90s the new electronic products and IT industry were developing so fast,therefore the factories reduced to manufacture of products, until 2010s all of the factories were disused. We can also find a railway in this area, because at that time people transported the completed product to all the country by train,and the departure was the department of the factory.
There is a river through this area, and also have a small wetland by the side of the river. Surrounding this area,many residents who worked in these factories before live there,and also there are some institutional establishment, school and transportation.

== Author's perspective ==
Green infrastructure

I’m so interested in this area,because it’s a valuable place to create a green infrastructure and it has many individual element, which can man integrate and connect with each other by corridor and buffer.As we know,there are old disused buildings ,a river, some small wetland and some vacant place where it had factories before and removed already. I’d like to make a planning to create a new environment for the residents, it will be a great green infrastructure in the future. either the people or the animals will get the benefit from this area.It’s a public space, and constitute of the area include the aspects of ecology, reuse,economy,education and so on.

== Landscape and urban context of the case ==

'''Biogeography'''
This case is situated in the city of eastern suburbs Chengdu,the dominating terrain of this case is plains. Because the whole city is located at the western edge of the Sichuan Basin and sits on the Chengdu Plain and has an elevation ranging from 450 meters to 720 meters. Since ancient times, this city has been known as "the Abundant Land" owing to its fertile soil, favorable climate, and novel Dujiangyan Irrigation System. The urban area, features a few rivers, three of them being the Jin, Fu, and Sha Rivers. The river “Sha” flow through the area of the case.

'''Climate'''
Chengdu has four distinct seasons, with moderate rainfall concentrated mainly in the warmer months, and relieved from both sweltering summers and freezing winters.
Rainfall is common year-round but is the greatest in July and August, with very little of it in the cooler months. Chengdu also has one of the lowest annual sunshine totals nationally, and most days are cloudy and overcast even if without rain. This is especially so in the winter months, when it is typically interminably grey and dreary, compounding the poor air quality.

'''Cultural Features'''

we call it cultural, however, in my opinion this word when I used it in this city,it sounds like life style.
It is a positive city,and the residents know what is the life. They know how to enjoy and share the life. The life style is always slowly and comfortable.

*<Traditional tea houses>

Traditional tea houses in Chengdu usually feature bamboo chairs and wooden tables and offer jasmine, green tea and biluochun tea.Modern tea houses can be spotted on almost every city corner. The price for tea varies from 5 RMB(0.7€) to several hundred. Besides tea and snacks, almost all tea houses offer Majiang sets, tables, and sometimes separate majiang rooms. Most locals go to tea houses to play majiang with friends. Some luxury tea houses in Chengdu also offer live entertainment such as Sichuan opera shows.

*<Theatre>

The regional opera is very popular in the city. the traditional performance named Chuanju, this is an ancient form of comedic drama involving dancing,singing,poetry and miming. The first detailed recorded opera was staged in the royal court of Shu Kingdom during the Three Kingdom Period(Chengdu was the center of the Shu kingdom at that period). And face-changing masks and fire breathing remain hallmarks of the Sichuan Opera.

*<Majiang>

Majiang has been an essential part of most local people's life. Almost every household in Chengdu has at least one set of majiang. People play majiang at home or in tea houses. On sunny days, the residents like to play majiang on the sidewalks, especially in the area nearby the Fu River. Most people play with money to make the game more exciting. Mahjong is the most popular entertainment choice among locals for several reasons. The main reason is that friends and families chat over mahjong tables, making majiang an important social vehicle.

*<Food>
