The waterfront embankment\u00a0provided a public open space for local residents to regain their lives to the city\u2019s mother river.    <\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<p>Part of the vision of restoring the port city of Tianjin into its status as an international riverfront city&nbsp;in northern China includes a comprehensive development plan for the Hai River. The aim is to&nbsp;develop the waterfront as a world-class river and landscape corridor, an essential component in the&nbsp;Tianjin\u2019s bid to create a strong cosmopolitan identity. We have been involved with the overall&nbsp;strategic plan and environmental master plan for the 20km Hai River corridor. After submitting the&nbsp;winning entry in an invitation-only competition to outline the concept for the first phase&nbsp;development of the Hai River embankment enhancement, we were commissioned to continue the&nbsp;schematic design of the 10 km embankment design and to oversee its implementation, which&nbsp;involved site supervision work.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Our study aimed to establish the overall framework and design principles for the embankment area.&nbsp;Focal open spaces were identified and injected with new landscape features that relate to and&nbsp;reflect the existing cultural heritage. The new landscape integrates with the embankment treatment&nbsp;and establishes a strong identity for this significant stretch of Hai River.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The design gives Tianjin the cosmopolitan statement it sought and serves as a modern vernacular&nbsp;that both builds on and reflects the site\u2019s heritage. We played a critical role in the coordination and&nbsp;implementation of the landscape design. For the final contractual implementation stage, our site&nbsp;team coordinated the daily dialogue between various public authorities to ensure that the original&nbsp;vision was realized. Tianjin\u2019s new international waterfront will be a focal point for the further&nbsp;development of Tianjin as a world-class city.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The project was recognized amongst the 2008 Landscape Institute Awards for creating innovative&nbsp;and dynamic landscapes.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":7,"featured_media":1336,"template":"","tags":[],"city":[31],"class_list":["post-1334","project","type-project","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","city-tianjin"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/aecom.com\/en-cn\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/project\/1334","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/aecom.com\/en-cn\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/project"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/aecom.com\/en-cn\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/project"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/aecom.com\/en-cn\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/7"}],"version-history":[{"count":3,"href":"https:\/\/aecom.com\/en-cn\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/project\/1334\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":2060,"href":"https:\/\/aecom.com\/en-cn\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/project\/1334\/revisions\/2060"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/aecom.com\/en-cn\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/1336"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/aecom.com\/en-cn\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1334"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/aecom.com\/en-cn\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=1334"},{"taxonomy":"city","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/aecom.com\/en-cn\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/city?post=1334"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
