ABSTRACT

Sustainable development has long been an important topic in urban renewal. This paper examines the renewal of urban waterfront spaces from the perspective of growth, focusing on the growth of nature, humanity, and industry. By controlling key elements, the waterfront landscape can achieve a balance between the past and the future, and between nature and the city. Combining relevant theories and practical experience, this paper proposes implementation approaches for growth in four dimensions: natural work, spatial integration, cultural extension, and industrial iteration. Using the example of the renewal practice of the Changyuan moat in Henan Province, this paper explores how to integrate the historical ecosystem, ancestral cultural genes, old city industry cultivation, and urban development process to ultimately create a regionally characteristic, sustainable waterfront space.
