规划总述

莲桥街地处宁波中心城区天封塔南及旧时日湖的西南侧，东靠小沙泥街住宅小区，南至灵桥路，西临开明街、解放南路，北至大沙泥街，是宁波申报‘海上丝绸之路’世界文化遗产极为重要的历史遗存文化风貌协调区。在宁波市所有现存历史地段中，其规模和质量仅次于“天一阁”保护区，位列第二。

莲桥街地块是宁波旧城改造战略的重点项目之一。项目总占地面积约66000平方米，总建筑面积约91000平方米。保留了4处文保单位、约20处历史建筑等，其中有新中国第一代邮票大师孙传哲的故居、始建于明朝的毛家大院、窖藏珍稀古籍的甬上望族四明袁氏故居、诞生三代宁波帮巨子的莲桥李宅等。

地块内的历史建筑常年疏于维护，整体状况破落，历经千年的古宅没有了昔日的荣光。为了恢复莲桥街的风貌，宁波市政府决心对其进行城市更新。由于该地块的发展滞后性以及城市中心区位的特殊性，使得项目拆迁成本巨大，这也是中国城市中心区更新面临的普遍问题。

Master Planning Summary

Lianqiaojie situates at the center of Ningbo city, at the south of Tianfeng Tower. The Lianqiaojie blockis wrapped by Nisha Street, Kaiming Street and South Jiefang Road, the block is an important part of the Ningbo Historical Preservation Zone of Ocean Silk Road. Its importance and scale is only after “Tianyi Ge”, ranks 2nd of Ningbo City.

Lianqiaojie is one the the major projects of the renovation of Ningbo downtown. The site covers about 66,000 sqm, the GFA is about 91,000 sqm. There are 4 National Historical and Cultural Heritage sitesand more than 20 Heritage buildings. Among them, stand out the Residence of Chuanzhe Sun, who is the pioneer of the Chinese postage stamp; Mao’s Courtyard, which is built in Ming Dynasty, Family Yuan’s Residence, which is famous for storage of lots of precious manuscripts; Family Li’s Residence, from this family come out 3 generation leaders of Ningbo business leagues.

Since lacking of maintenance, the building status is quite worrying. You could never imagine the historical glory of the block. To restore the beauty of Lianqiaojie, Ningbo local government decides to revitalize the site. Because the site locates in the right center of the Ningbo city, the land value is veryhigh, which raise the cost of the relocation of local residents. This is a common situation of current Chinese downtown renovation.
