Confronting the current urban problems such as traffic jam, environmental challenge
and urban sprawl, the development of public transport network is often regarded as a
sustainable solution. In some countries, the so-called Transit-Oriented Development
(TOD), which focuses on the mixed-use, compacted developments surrounding the public
transport node, has become a trend. However, the introduction of public transport network
will not just effect the land developments of the proximate areas of transit stations/stops
but also largely influence the spatial structure of a metropolitan region, including both
new towns and existing city areas. Beijing, as a global metropolitan city that is still in an
intensive urbanization, can be a show case of the urban transformation guided by the
development of public transport network.

Although the first subway line in Beijing had been built in the mid 1960s, the public
transport development, especially the development of urban rail transit system, was
not emphasized as a solution of mass traffic for a long period. Within the urbanization
driven by the market-oriented reform, urban expressway and private car traffic used to
be considered as the backbone of urban development, which inevitably caused a series
of aforementioned urban problems. From the last decade, the construction of public
transport network was eventually reemphasized in Beijing. Till the end of 2011, the subway
network in operation contained 15 lines, in total 372 km. According to the existing plan,
the urban rail transit network in Beijing will be extended to 30 lines and 1,050 km in 2020.
In the near future, there will be 2-3 lines completed and put into use each year. The large-
scale extension of public transport network has significantly affected and will largely guide
Beijing’s urban re-development, which means not only urban expansion but urban renewal.

In the context of Beijing’s large-scale development of public transport system, the
research and design task of IFoU Summer School 2012 will focus on the issues on the
challenges for urban planning and design in Beijing as an emerging global city. Along
with the new subway lines under construction (e.g. Line 7 and Line 14, which will be
put into operation at the end of 2013), the newly-introduced rail transit network will
bring on many opportunities (new centrality, social housing, public space, environment-
friendly development, etc.), as well as threats (land speculation, social exclusion, spatial
segregation, urban sprawl, etc.), for the sustainable urban development. Apart from
contributing to the urban expansion, the extension of public transport network will be, more
importantly, linked to the urban renewal of existing built-up areas. The themes of summer
school will be concentrated on those spatial questions and potentials about the urban
functions, spaces and morphologies around the public transport nodes. A challengeable
site in the old city of Beijing will be chosen for research and design.

Tianqiao North area is located in
the old city of Beijing. Next to the north-
south axis of Beijing’s old city, this area
is nearby the Qianmen shopping street
to the north, the Tianqiao Performing Arts
District (a historical district for traditional
folk performance, which is under
reconstruction) to the south, the Temple
of Heaven to the east, and many other
attractive venues. The subway Line 7,
which is still under construction and will be
put into use before the end of 2014, will
pass by the site, with two stations at its
northeast and northwest corners. Site Location in Beijing

The Site

As a neighbourhood in the historical “outer city”, the construction of Tianqiao North
area can be traced to Ming Dynasty (1368-1644). Till the end of Qing Dynasty (1844-
1911), many hutong blocks had been established. From 1914 to 1928, the Xiangchang
New District – a pilot project for “new urban district” – was planned and implemented on
the waste land in the centre of the site. In the 1950s, the Soviet-style housing blocks and
public buildings were built on the both sides of Yong’an Lu – a main street along the south
boundary of Tianqiao North area. Between 1960s and 1990s, many mid-rise and high-rise
buildings were inserted into the area.

Today, Tianqiao North has become a mix-used inner-city neighourhood. In an
urban area of 51.75 ha and three sub-neighbourhoods (Liuxue Lu sub-neighbourhood,
Xiangchang Lu sub-neighbourhood and Lazhu Hutong sub-neighbourhood), about 20,000
residents are living in the houses of different types and ownerships (owner-occupied,
public-rented and private-rented). Mixed with the residential buildings, there are shops,
schools, hospitals, hotels, enterprises and office buildings. Many local businesses, either
fixed or mobile, are scattered anywhere in the neighbourhood. With the vibrant local
lifestyle, as well as the buildings and urban fabric that were developed in different periods,
Tianqiao North area is a very representative and “ordinary” neighbourhood of Beijing’s old
city.

Nevertheless, the existing housing conditions and living environments in this old
neighbourhood is not preferable. In this highly dense neighbourhood (13.5 m2 per capita),
many old buildings (especially those which were built before the 1950s) are evidently
dilapidated. The outdoor environments are dirty and disordered, and the urban form is
fragmented. The infrastructure and local facilities are incomplete. And the traffic system
is not well organized. Tianqiao North area has been enrolled as one of the urban renewal
areas since the early 1990s, but the renewal was never implemented. At present, the
introduction of subway Line 7, as well as the redevelopment of Tianqiao Performing Arts
District, brought on the new opportunities for revitalizing this old neighbourhood. However,
the wholesale demolition-reconstruction or gentrification is still the realistic threats.

14

1. Subway Development and New Centrality
The extension of public transport network, especially the subway system, will carry great
potential for the development of new centralities surrounding the public transport nodes.
Those new centralities can be a result of not only urban expansion but urban renewal.
In between the newly-introduced subways stations and the under-constructed Tianqiao
Performing Arts District, Tianqiao North area is located in a critical place. It might play
a role of linking public transport nodes and a new centrality. Yet there is still a crucial
question: which direction the neighbourhood itself will go forward? Will it become an
integral part of new centrality or a buffer zone with its local identity?

2. Urban Rail Transit Network, Social Housing and Urban Rehabilitation
In order to deal with the serious housing problem, social housing development started
to be reemphasized in Beijing. The new social housing developments are often linked to
the extension of urban rail transit network. On the other hand, the development of social
housing and subway network will indubitably be beneficial to the low-income groups.
The challenge is if this kind of social-oriented developments will only focus on the urban
expansion areas or also contribute to improving the living conditions of deteriorated
neighbourhoods, the latter of which actually means urban rehabilitation.

3. Public Space, Urban Morphology and Public Transport Node
This sub-theme will be related to the issues on urban design surrounding the urban rail
transit nodes. With respect to the old, inner-city neighbourhoods such as Tianqiao North,
the new subway lines and stations will generate an opportunity to reshape urban space
and urban form. From the station to home, the introduction of public transport node in an
old neighbourhood is actually a generator of new public life. But it also results in a series
of spatial questions including the redesign of public space, the improvement of outdoor
environments and the defragmentation of urban morphology.

4. Public Transport and “Green” Neighbourhood
The public transport network usually, through the nodes and interfaces, connects with
the non-motorized transport such as walking and bicycling. They together compose a
“green” traffic system, which will significantly facilitate the daily round of local residents.
Furthermore, the establishment of an environment-friendly transport system will largely
push ahead, on both urban and local scales, an integral planning for creating the
ecologically sustainable communities. With the introduction of new subway stations, the
design questions are not only about the development of a local non-motorized transport
network but, more importantly, the possibility to establish a “green” neighbourhood in
Tianqiao North area.
