This “hanging garden” in Yangpu Binjiang hides the unexpected beauty!
Yangpu District Information Office said that on the riverside trail in the district, there is an industrial-style “steel forest”-Green Hill. It used to be a tobacco company’s machine repair warehouse. Now it has been transformed into a rooftop garden. From the second floor, the terraces contracted layer by layer are filled with layers of greenery, just like the legendary “hanging garden”. Let’s look at Meitu ↓
Green Hill
Green Hill was originally an abandoned tobacco company’s machine repair warehouse, and the designer sublimated it so that history and future meet here.

▼ Green Hills
Tobacco’s machine repair warehouse was built in 1995. Its predecessor dates back to the Jardine Cold Storage, which was established by Jardine Ocean Bank in 1920. Jardine was the first foreign investment bank to enter Shanghai, and it was founded in the 47th year of Qianlong (1782).
It looks like an abandoned steel forest from the outside,
But there is a lot in it.
There is a spiral escalator in the center of the building,
Connected to the exhibition halls on each floor,
Direct access to the roof garden.
There are only straight lines and curves.
Only black, white, gray,
The space is simple but not monotonous.
There is a U-shaped walkway on the top floor,
Provide a 270-degree viewing platform,
During the stroll, there is a visual effect of flying into the river.
Facing the road, there is a corner staircase,
You can look at the street view from a different angle.
In addition to the large buildings,
This is also where art meets.
If you look at this work through the bird’s perspective, it is actually two huge animals. But as a human being, we can only see from the microscopic perspective that small animals, trees, birds, reptiles, etc. are nested in the body of animals, like the tiny but not negligible little creatures that constitute the natural world, This way to explore the way nature exists in the city.
