“中央公园的洁净空气和静谧氛围是嘉定作为上海卫星城市的一个关键性的“卖点”。公园占地70公顷，将湿地与森林栖息地与休闲空间相结合，成为附近以交通为导向的开发区域中的一道绿肺。通过减少穿越公园的道路数量，在保留道路的地方建立人行桥或下穿通道，约12.8公里长的非机动车道得以保持整体性与连续性。景观设计师还采取了为土地分级和重新种植本地物种的策略，使曾经被藻华堵塞的运河变成具有生物多样性的清澈水道。”
– 2020年评审委员会

“The cleaner air and restorative tranquility of Jiading’s Central Park are crucial selling points for this satellite city of nearby Shanghai. Combining wetland and woodland habitats with areas for recreation and respite across a 70-hectare site, Jiading Park functions as a green lung for the adjacent transit-oriented development. A careful reduction in the number of transverse roadways, and incorporation of pedestrian bridges, allow for overall continuity along roughly eight miles of pathways for non-motorized use. The landscape architects’ strategies of regrading terrain and replanting native species have led canals once clogged with algal bloom to become clear waterways brimming with biodiversity.”

项目概述
PROJECT STATEMENT

城市的扩张正影响着亚洲的几乎每一座城市。当人口密度和空间都达到极限时，规划者和设计师也将面临着如何利用城郊地区来拓展城市中心的问题。嘉定是一个很好的例子：它是上海市郊的一个混合使用的高密度区域，拥有15.5万人口。作为一个主要大都市的卫星城，嘉定的主要“卖点”是松散的人群、更加完善的设施以及更加健康的环境。其中，占地70公顷的嘉定公园正为这种宜居性提供了有力的支撑。公园被设想为促进地区发展的催化剂，在周边区域开发之前便已建成。如今的嘉定公园已经成为迅速扩张的城区中最受欢迎的开放空间，同时也是嘉定区身份与气质的核心所在。

Urban expansion is impacting nearly every city in Asia. When limits of density and space are reached, planners and designers are confronted with the question of how peri-urban areas can be co-opted to augment the city center. Jiading, a high-density mixed-use district on the outskirts of Shanghai with a population of 155,000 people, is a prime example. The satellite of a major metropolis, it is marketed as a neighborhood with fewer crowds, better amenities, and a healthier environment. Bolstering its case for livability is the 70 hectare (173 acre) Jiading Park, which was envisioned as the catalyst for the district’s growth and built prior to the surrounding development. Today, Jiading Park is a beloved open space in this rapidly expanding precinct and is at the core of Jiading District’s identity and ethos.

项目说明
PROJECT NARRATIVE

嘉定新城的总体规划确立了一条面积约为70公顷的中央景观轴线，贯穿这个位于上海市郊的17平方公里的新城区。经过五年的设计和施工，紫气东来景观轴线得以对公众开放。这个线性公园是这片快速开发地区中最大的城市开放空间之一。它作为步行绿色纽带，既连接了分散的绿地斑块，又结合了周边的城市街区。公园的设计整合了诗意形态、文化表达、公共功能和生态修复，创造出多重使用体验，供人们世代享用。

项目伊始，由于穿越性的交通对公共绿地特别是紫气东来造成的影响在总体规划中没有得到慎重的考量，规划中的公园呈碎片状。设计团队所进行的关键的第一步就是将公园尽可能连成一个整体，并与周边的其它绿地相连接：减少穿越公园的道路数量，在保留道路的地方建立人行桥或下穿通道——以保护野生动物走廊并保证行人完整的游园体验。

Sasaki的设计概念——”林中的舞蹈”，是对传统中国绘画、书法和舞蹈的现代阐释。公园突出了嘉定丰富的文化遗产，并将其与基地的自然环境相结合。设计中将自然景观元素，如行云流水这些当地画家陆俨少作品中常见的主题，用现代和动态的形式重新诠释，表现运动的感觉并影响人们与景观互动的方式。公园中四条主要步行道不仅承载了穿越公园和沿公园游览的交通，而且与园内各要素紧密结合，交织变化如水袖飞舞，沿空间与地形蜿蜒起伏。公园内的空间构成展示了形式与功能的双重性——呈现出开阔与郁闭，宽广与私密，活跃与安静，城市与田园，直与曲，高架与下沉等多种变化。

以深入的项目理解和清晰的设计愿景为基础，设计团队进行了以可持续为导向的设计。对加强生态系统的有力承诺和以人为本的宗旨在细节中得到体现，包括将所有步道均设计为无障碍通道、恢复湿地、新增林地、栽种本土植物以培养本地生物群落、系统性管理雨洪、限制人工照明、以及有效地重新利用现有材料和基地构筑物。

一条3.2公里长的自然形成的运河构成了公园的骨架。沿线的湿地改善了水质，并为河岸的栖息地提供了支撑。绿色植被密布的口袋空间部分不允许人类进入，成为野生动物的庇护所。总体上计算，水体的面积占公园面积的16.4%，湿地面积占92%。步道和自行车道网络铺陈在蓝绿色的画布上，为游客带来幽静的小径和宽阔的长廊。项目的两个“大动作”分别是改变道路网和关注生态上的贡献，使公园能够对主要的城市设计举措起到引领作用，而非简单地对既定的条件作出反应。

场地中现有的运河得到了保留、恢复和扩大，以改善水质并过滤雨水径流。新建设的60,700平方米湿地能够处理高达10,900立方米的径流量，超过了场地加上周边道路和开发区域在遇上第95百分位数的暴雨事件的情况下，将会排入运河的径流量。附近道路沿线设置了生物过滤区，在径流排入公园的运河之前加以处理。

通过跨学科的方法、有创造力的愿景与影响深远的可持续设计，上海嘉定中央公园为这个地区带来了巨大变化。对湿地与林地的修复大大改善了水体和空气质量并增加了生物多样性；借助雨水收集每年可节约10万吨自来水；对现状构筑物及沥青与青砖等建材的重新利用减少了因制造新材料而产生的排放并降低了建设成本。

今天的公园中，往日污浊的运河和肆意的蓝藻早已不见踪影，取而代之的是清澈的河水和垂钓的渔翁；昔日喧嚣的马路已不再焦躁，变形为幽静的林阴步道。芦苇荡里，几只白鹭起起落落；龚家浜上，一群野鸭嘎嘎戏水；运动场上，男女老少奔跑竞技；竹岛斜阳，情侣双双徜徉私语。这条绿色纽带是新城的核心，并且迅速成为了该地区活力的象征。

PROJECT NARRATIVE

A NEW URBAN DISTRICT BORNE FROM A PARK

The initial design brief for Jiading Park called for a radical transformation. In its existing state, the site was comprised of factories, warehouses, and fallow agricultural fields. Canals showed signs of eutrophication – the presence of excessive amounts of nutrients – causing an explosion of algal blooms and posing a public health hazard. The new park would have to not only reverse the negatives, but in turn reposition the site into a significant recreational space and lifestyle amenity. To do this, the landscape architects expanded the agenda to include an in depth review of the urban design of the entire district, as well as a comprehensive study of the site’s ecological systems. The goal was to conceive an immersive biophilic experience where natural capital could be restored.

The City’s initial urban design strategy for Jiading District identified an open space reserved for the new park that was segmented into 10 sections with 9 roads cutting across its width. A thorough traffic study initiated by the landscape architect analyzed vehicular flow throughout the entire district and concluded that there would be no significant impact to traffic from eliminating five proposed crossings. Three of the bisecting roadways remain at grade, with one creatively manipulating topography to lower the road slightly to allow for a land bridge. The result was minimized fragmentation of the park, an uninterrupted pedestrian experience, and better connectivity of ecological systems and wildlife corridors.

A 3.2 linear kilometer naturalized canal forms the backbone of the park. Here, wetlands improve water quality and support riparian habitats. Pockets of dense green cover, some inaccessible to humans, create refuge for wildlife. In total, water bodies make up 16.4% of the park while wetlands constitute some 9.2%. Pedestrian and cycling networks are overlaid onto this blue-green canvas, offering visitors options including secluded trails and broad promenades. These two big moves – altering the roadway grid and focusing on its ecological contribution – allowed the park to guide major urban design moves rather than simply reacting to given conditions.

NATURAL SYSTEMS

Existing canals on the site were retained, naturalized, and expanded to improve water quality and filter stormwater runoff. 60,700 square meters of constructed wetlands were created with a capacity to treat up to 10,900 cubic meters, exceeding the runoff volume from the site and surrounding roads and development that drain to the canals during a 95th percentile storm event. Biofiltration areas were included along adjacent roads to provide treatment prior to discharge into the park’s canals. A series of vegetated filter strips supplement the wetlands’ cleansing function, and sub-surface rainwater storage cisterns hold water for irrigation. A post-occupancy evaluation conducted by East China Normal University’s Urban & Rural Ecological Restoration Lab noted significant improvements in water quality across the site. Samples taken at multiple points along the main canal over the course of a full year demonstrated a 66% reduction of total nitrogen, and a 97% reduction of total phosphorous.

The park offers a range of green cover from woodlands, wetlands, tree groves, and lawn areas. Naturalized woodlands comprise 14.4% of the total site area, tree groves comprise 17%, and lawns only around 5%. All vegetation introduced into the park is native to the lower Yangtze River Delta region. Approximately 2,500 existing trees on site were retained, with another 11,474 newly planted. In the final tally, there are some 62 species of trees throughout the park. The planting strategy focused on creating multiple canopy layers and contiguous forest cover, with varying vegetation density. Human accessibility is restricted in some parts, provided critical space for wildlife refuge.

Upon completion of the park, fauna returned to the site at a remarkable rate. Pollinator species, not observed during initial site inventories, have bloomed and fish and amphibian communities have begun to thrive. Although no formal audit was undertaken, the park is anecdotally known to be home to many species of egrets, frogs, dragonflies, crayfish, birds, and fish. Some appear to have transferred from habitats near Yuanxiang Lake to the east.

Also recorded in the post occupancy study conducted by East China Normal University, the park has had an impact on Jiading District’s urban heat island, with a reduction in park surface temperatures averaging 1.9 degrees Celsius. Estimates also suggest that approximately 167 tons of carbon will be sequestered annually in the park, up from a pre-development baseline of 39 tons. Carbon stored over 25 years will equal roughly 2,410 tons, up from 559 tons.

URBAN SYSTEMS

Jiading Park is the social and recreational hub of the burgeoning district, and is connected to a wider network of pedestrian pathways. In total, about 18 hectares of the park are dedicated to recreational uses. About 6,500 square meters of development area features restaurants, art galleries, and civic program. There are also 17 kilometers of paths and boardwalks throughout the park, with links from adjacent residential neighborhoods at multiple points to facilitate accessibility. As a catalyst for the new development, it is now framed by government, cultural, and civic buildings, mixed-use developments, and residential high-rises. It is also highly connected to the regional public transit network, with the Baiyun Road station of the Shanghai metro linking the park to downtown Shanghai in approximately 45 minutes via subway Line 11.

PEOPLE & COMMUNITY

Four distinct pathways run the length of Jiading Park – the Dynamic Path, the Tranquil Path, the Water Path, and the Tree Path. The Water Path runs alongside the main canal, past wetlands, filtration beds, planted wetland terraces, and waterfront boardwalks. The Dynamic Path links activity nodes with broad promenades and trails that climb topography and frame views of the site and city. The Tranquil Path is narrower and meanders through denser vegetation, allowing for a more immersive experience. Finally, the Tree Path was constructed by recycling the asphalt of a former road and utilizes its existing street trees to provide a shaded promenade. According to a recent social survey conducted by a research team from the National University of Singapore (NUS), most visitors are 25-40 years old and frequent the park with their families. The majority walk or bike to the park from less than a 2 kilometer radius, and many enjoy fishing in the canal in addition to the park’s programmed amenities. NUS researchers also noted that the park is the epicenter of public space and social life in the Jiading neighborhood and acts as a magnet not only for the residents of the area, but also for those considering a move out of Shanghai.

IMPACT

Since its opening, Jiading Park, has become the geographic and symbolic center of Jiading District. It makes suburban living feel more urban, yet promises a better lifestyle and a sustainable environment. More critically, it showcases nature-centric planning as a viable, lucrative model for urban expansion. The design process battled skepticism from the start, as conventional mindsets clashed with forward-thinking outlooks. Typically, Chinese parks are manicured and monocultural. By comparison, Jiading Park is untamed in appearance and intentionally complex. The design team invested their political capital in educating the client and local stakeholders on how the proposed ecosystems approach would be a differentiator. This trust-building process was pivotal in the eventual success of the project.

The goal to decongest cities like Shanghai depends on how satellite districts like Jiading bring nature back into its postindustrial landscapes. Its park was one of the first large developments of its kind in China to adopt an ecological approach to landscape design, before policies on “Sponge Cities” were adopted. Today, Jiading Park stands as a prime example of the impact restorative strategies can have, particularly on improvements to water quality the proliferation of wildlife habitats.
