Redesign Suzhou Creek by Sasaki Associates, Shanghai, China
Sasaki was selected as the winning team for the international competition to redesign Suzhou Creek in Shanghai, China. Suzhou Creek (also known as the Wusong River) was historically one of Shanghai’s most vital water routes, but in recent decades suffered from unspeakable pollution and neglect. With a grant from the Asian Development Bank, the waterway is now clean and ready to reclaim its role as a centerpiece of the city.
