Hangzhou Changhe Old Street will start a new round of upgrading and renovation projects. The upgrading and renovation plan revolved around the construction of industrial blocks, cultural parks, and livelihood communities. It aimed to achieve the goal of " returning the old street to its original state, seeking the future of the old street, and making the old street present." The project would improve the sightseeing route of the old street, connecting the scenic spots into lines and connecting them into surfaces, creating a long river old street that could be seen, entered, and stopped. In order to achieve this goal, Changhe Old Street would focus on improving the four aspects of "or-tour-scene-street" and expand and improve the landscape space of the block. In addition, Changhe Old Street also introduced local brands and time-honored brands to create a multi-dimensional pedestrian space that integrated cultural creation, experience, and commerce. Through these measures, Changhe Old Street would be revitalized, and the culture of old buildings and old objects would come to life.
There were many situations in which old houses by the West Lake in Hangzhou were sold. In terms of price, its price was affected by many factors. If the location of the house was excellent and the surrounding facilities were complete, such as being close to a well-known school, landmark buildings, and close to a subway station, even if the building was older, the price might be very high. For example, the auction house at No. 120 Laodong Road in Uptown had a building area of 76.5 square meters. It was close to the West Lake and the surrounding facilities were very complete. The final transaction price was fixed at 4.59 million yuan, equivalent to about 60,000 yuan. However, there were also some old houses that could not be sold at a high price although they were in a good location. For example, the old house on Huansha Road was only 500 meters away from the West Lake. It had 85 square meters of three rooms. The community had just been renovated and an elevator had been installed. The environment was good but the school district was average. With reference to the price of 5 million yuan next door, no one was interested in 4.5 million yuan. This might be because there were problems such as tight parking spaces and outdated products in the old community. For pure demand, the total price or unit price was higher. Moreover, it was more difficult to make a deal with a large apartment in an old neighborhood. In addition, a house of about 50 square meters in Renhe Building, although located near the West Lake, was recently listed at around 80,000 yuan per square meter, but there was no market for it. In terms of market demand, the people who bought the old houses by West Lake had different motives. Some of them were for the sake of living and retirement. For example, some old people were unwilling to sell their houses because there were many hospitals near the West Lake, which was suitable for retirement. Some were for investment purposes. Historical buildings with profound cultural heritage by the West Lake might be more popular with investors. For example, a 307-square-meter model house of the Kerry Center hotel-style apartment, Yilu, was signed at a price of 32.28 million yuan, with a unit price of 105,000 yuan/square meter. There were also commercial real estates with a listing price of up to 1 billion yuan on sale. If one wanted to sell an old house by the West Lake, they needed to consider the condition of the house itself (such as size, layout, decoration, age, etc.), the surrounding environment (such as supporting facilities, transportation, etc.), and market demand. They needed to set a reasonable price and choose the right time to sell. The novel "Listening to the Rain in Green Bamboo and Watching the Egrets" is equally wonderful.
