Renovation of Container Houses in Minhang District

Admin September 15, 2026

The renovation of container houses in Minhang District can be applied to various scenarios such as community services, commercial districts, cultural and creative offices, and Party-mass service stations, as detailed below:

Community Service Scenario: Near the north gate of Xinfengyuan, a newly built container serves as a convenience station and is also a display platform jointly established by the Party-mass service station and China Construction Science and Engineering. Inside, it displays comprehensive renovation project details, contact numbers, and construction progress. Outside, it posts construction information, process flows, and material samples, and is equipped with fire safety facilities. Weekly convenience activities such as haircuts and blood pressure measurements are held, with plans to offer services like knife sharpening in the future, providing residents with comprehensive convenience and transparent construction information, reducing the impact of the Party-mass service station's closure during construction.

Commercial District Scenario: Chuanshang Meiji Commercial District features a container art market, transforming old factories and warehouses into creative container buildings with a total floor area of 5,055 square meters. The project integrates diverse business formats such as 'food + entertainment + exhibitions + performances', targeting surrounding university students, family groups, and workers from science and innovation parks. Through the 'art market + trendy commerce' model, it attracts young consumer groups and has become a new hotspot for trendy activities in Minhang.

Cultural and Creative Office Scenario: Binjiang Yiku Cultural District has renovated the public service facilities at No. 9 Jianshe Road and the old factory at No. 215 Pujiang Road into a cultural and creative industry platform with a total floor area of approximately 4,902 square meters. The container area focuses on modern offices, featuring spacious and bright spaces with complete water, electricity, and network facilities, suitable for start-ups, technology companies, or cultural and creative firms.

Party-Mass Service Station Scenario: The Chuxinyi - Chuanshang Meiji Party-mass Service Station, located at No. 6 Lanping Road (container house), covers a total area of 378 square meters. Aligned with the positioning of Jiangchuan Road Sub-district as a modern riverside new urban area featuring 'industry-city integration, science and innovation clustering, comprehensive services, and a stylish atmosphere', it includes cultural display areas, convenience service areas, a reading bar, a light coffee bar, an aerospace theme museum, and an observation deck.
