Once known as the Wusong River, Suzhou Creek is a formative artery of Shanghai--cradling Jiangnan civilization, incubating China's early industry, and spurring the city's first waves of modernization--while the changes along its banks preserve deep collective memories and shape civic identity, reflecting the interplay of urban life and waterways. A walk along the creek reveals an exceptional concentration of distinctive historic architecture; within the planned central waterfront this volume documents 103 outstanding buildings--landmarks of modern Chinese history in varied styles--and systematically catalogs each site, pairing selected entries with archival materials and curated narratives to serve as an essential guide for historians, architects, urban explorers, and anyone drawn to Shanghai's living past. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cb\u003eText in English and Mandarin.\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Shanghai Municipal Commission of Housing,Shanghai Society for Urban Studies\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 7576518618\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9787576518610\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Tongji University Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 01\/12\/2027\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 288\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.41lbs","brand":"Shanghai Municipal Commission of Housing","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":48874781180159,"sku":"9787576518610","price":25.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/maps-of-historical-buildings-along-shanghai-municipal-commission-of-housing-9787576518610","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
