This book presents the work of a Edward P. Bass Distinguished Visiting Architecture Fellowship at Yale School of Architecture, co-taught by real estate developer Vincent Lo, founder and chairman of Shui-On Land, and others. Chongqing, one of China's four directly-controlled municipalities, is a rapidly growing economic hub of western China with a rich urban history. As it seeks to expand its urbanized boundaries and redirect economic growth towards the high-tech manufacturing and service industries, it is also investing enormous resources in new transit infrastructure, parks, cultural facilities, and other public amenities. This book demonstrates might play in shaping new paradigms for the development of western China's emerging mega-cities.
