Binjiang Digital City
Hangzhou, PRC
Binjiang Digital City was the first of a series of mixed use developments in the new (2000) “River District” of Hangzhou. The project consists of 1100 residential condominiums with 500,000sf of commercial space. The commercial space is divided into 2 structures which are connected: a low rise office building (5 floors) of about 200,000sf and a 22 story commercial tower of about 300,000sf. Although built as a multi-purpose office building the tower has been converted to a 4 star hotel. Both buildings have retail space on the first floor, and function as the entrance to the residential plaza behind them.
