Taopu Smart City
City of Shanghai
with Ennead Architects
Taopu’s industrial past left the area heavily contaminated, compelling the rePLACE team, working with Ennead Architects and BuroHappold Engineering, to assume responsibility for the cleanup of the pollution on site. In order to accomplish this goal, our team created mappings that called for capping the heavily polluted sites against traditional cut-and-fill strategies for the whole district.
