上海少年儿童图书馆现馆位于南京西路 962 号，是上海地区少儿文献资源中心、少儿阅读推广和指导中心。随着公共文化事业的飞速发展，为优化本市少年儿童公共文化供给，保障本市少儿阅读权益，拟建设上海少年儿童图书馆新馆。

新馆建设选址于普陀区长风商务区，基地北邻光复西路，西至大渡河路。绿地南面毗邻苏州河，有天然的亲水平台；北面与长风公园仅一路之隔。项目选址具有视野开阔、绿色亲水、动静相宜、交通便利等优势。

Shanghai Children’s Library is located at No.962 West Nanjing Road. In Shanghai, it plays the role of children’s literature resource center, children’s reading promotion and guidance center. With the rapid development of public culture, its branch library is planned to be built to optimize the facilities for children and protect their rights of reading.

The new branch library is located in Changfeng Business District, Putuo District, adjacent to Guangfu West Road in the north and Daduhe Road in the west. The Suzhou River is to the south of the site where there would be a waterside platform naturally; the north is only one way away from Changfeng Park. The site has the advantages of broad vision, greenery and waterscape, suitable for diverse activities, and convenient transportation.

城市的回应：一个巨大而五彩缤纷的花园

A response to the city: A vast and colorful garden

原有的城市公园系统，由北往南，从长风公园到苏州河畔，为市民提供了一处绵延数公里的生态休闲场所。新馆的建设位置恰恰切断了景观的连续界面。鉴于此，方案从城市角度出发，选择将建筑底层起拱架空。

From Changfeng Park to the Suzhou River, the existing urban park layout provides citizens with an ecological recreation area stretching for several kilometers from north to south. However, the site of the new library cuts off the serial interface of the landscape. Accordingly, from the perspective of urban planning, architects spare open space on the ground floor by the arched volume.
