PROPERTY DEVELOPMENT

Shui On Land engages principally in the development of sustainable premium urban communities. The Company is driving innovation in its development model, leveraging its strengths in urban regeneration, master planning and cultural preservation to provide different urban solutions in China.

Master-Planned Urban Communities

Shui On Land has been actively involved in accelerating urban regeneration and city renewals in China since the 1990s. With the pioneering concept of overall planning, the company is facelifting the existing dilapidated areas and building world-class mixed-use communities that offer premium and sophisticated residential, commercial, entertainment, and cultural experiences to meet the goals and future needs of urban development. Further, Shui On Land has also pioneered a new concept in protecting and rejuvenating built heritage, by incorporating local historical and cultural characteristics into the master planning and design of historic buildings, which in turn enables the concurrent preservation and revitalization of a city's signature architecture. Shui On Land has created a new model for urban regeneration in China. This practice has been widely used for reference in the process of urbanization in the Chinese cities. In line with its concept of sustainable development, Shui On creates high-quality community spaces that stimulates the innovation and vitality of urban life, adding value to the region.

Knowledge Communities

In line with the strategy of "revitalizing the city through science and education" and supporting the development of innovation and entrepreneurship, Shui On Land has pursued the interconnected development of university campus, public community and science park to bring together innovation incubation, social and knowledge sharing. These large-scale Knowledge Communities are multi-functional, catering to their inhabitants' preferences and needs across work, daily life, and leisure. Represented by KIC, the inspiration comes from Silicon Valley in the U.S. and the Left Bank of Paris, both of which are dynamic areas surrounded by renowned universities and research institutions; domestic and multinational cultural and high-tech companies; venture capital institutions; as well as incubators that provide different public services. These communities serve as highly dynamic and engaging ecosystems for better convergence and interaction of capital, technology, knowledge and creative culture, enabling a wide range of talent, from entrepreneurs to tech professionals, to interact with one another.

Transportation Hub

Relying on the powerful transportation network and resource configuration portal advantages, commercial complexes that are connected to large transportation hubs now increasingly serve as important gathering areas for high-end business activities. They provide multi-faceted experiences covering work, shopping, catering, entertainment, the performing arts and hotel, empowering the regional economic development. Located in Hongqiao Business District, the gateway of linking international and domestic distribution of global resource elements, THE HUB is an iconic one-stop project that provides business, leisure, accommodation and entertainment facilities for working professionals in the Hongqiao Business District, residents of West Shanghai, and the 75 million population living within an hour’s reach via high-speed rail. It acts as a new engine to promote the national development strategy of "Integration of the Yangtze River Delta".

Historical Blocks Revitalization

As China urbanizes, cities have ushered in a new “stock era” where urban renewal is required for sustainable urban development due to limited land resources in the heart of the city, particularly downtown areas of established first-tier cities (e.g., Shanghai) and newly emerged ones. By virtue of our competitive edges and competence in urban renewal, cultural conservation, community operation and beyond, Shui On Land is, while retaining cities’ cultural legacies and traditional fabric, repositioning the functions of historical blocks to meet current and future needs of urban development in an innovative way. We employ novel placemaking strategies to give historical blocks new looks, allow mixed functions of these blocks, and energize urban areas.
