Centennial Park
Print Edition
A park created from what was once Shanghai’s longest railway wet market has become a key attraction in Putuo, and local citizens have been involved in the design and construction of the park.
Centennial Park features skywalks and underground sports courts. It represents Putuo’s answer to the “15-minute Community Life Circle.”
The highline park stretches for a kilometer through the Caoyang community between Caoyang Road and Zhongshan Road N. It was once Caoyang Railway Wet Market, a narrow, long market with poor environment and noise problems.
The market was shut down in 2019 after complaints from residents.
The park’s arched canopy resembles the shape and color of the former market’s ceiling.
A basketball court and service station have been built in the underground space to make up for the shortage of activity space in the old neighborhood.
The park also features exhibitions, salons and art installations.
