Permalink to Green and Smart (4) – Chengdu’s Yulin District: A District of Small Blocks

Chengdu’s Yulin was developed spontaneously as a neighborhood made up of small blocks. The neighborhood hosts a variety of businesses, services, and community activities, and is a successful example of using small blocks to create economic vibrancy in a Chinese neighborhood.
