Award Winning Qingdao Harborfront Redevelopment
Designed by EE&K a Perkins Eastman Company, the Qingdao Harborfront Redevelopment proposal has won the 2013 Urban Design Honor Award by the American Institute of Architects (AIA). The proposed site is unique as it was once a dockland and industrial estate which no longer in use. To recognize the historical significance of the site, some ship building cranes have been preserved and used as urban sculpture for the newly created public space.
