I visited Tianjin Street on February 13th, 219. Here are the photos.

From these five photos, how "unpopular" is Tianjin Street now? Although February 13, 219 is the tenth day of the first month, some businesses have not yet opened, and some even think it is the reason for the cold weather, but this is obviously not the reason.

At present, the popularity of Tianjin Street is not comparable to the bustling commercial streets in other cities, even Xi 'an Road.

Why has Tianjin Street fallen to such a state?

I think there are many reasons, but at present, what I can think of can be summed up as follows:

First, the relocation of the old tenants has lost the popularity here.

Although our family is not an old resident of Tianjin Street, our home is not far from Tianjin Street, and it takes at most 15 minutes to walk from my home. When I was a child, my mother often took me around Tianbai, went to "big food" to buy "bad", and even our family went to Guotai to buy refrigerators. Many shopping malls in Tianjin Street Commercial Street have left my footprints.

Unfortunately, Tianbai, the most important shopping mall in Tianjin Street Commercial Street, and its stores are basically yellow. Although there is a new sky now, it is not the feeling before.

As an old Dalian native, my mother sometimes goes for a stroll in Tianjin Street. When she sees this situation, she often says to me, "Relocation has removed all the people, and there is no one left. How can a businessman be good?"

Indeed, popularity is very important if business is to develop. In that year, with various relocations, the old residents in Dalian were moved away, and the popularity of Tianjin Street was also taken away.

Second, there is something wrong with its own development orientation

As a native of Dalian, the inherent impression of Tianjin Street is still "a commercial street with old brands". Indeed, there were a large number of time-honored shops such as Shanshuilou Steamed Bun, Wangmazi Fried Dumpling, Mouchuanren Dumpling, Qunyinglou Steamed Bun and Li Liangui Bacon Pie on Tianjin Street in those days. These time-honored shops attracted a lot of popularity and made great contributions to the prosperity of Tianjin Street.

Unfortunately, with the renovation of Tianjin Street, these old brands have all moved away. However, the buildings on Tianjin Street are getting higher and higher, and a number of high-rise buildings such as Hong Kong Exchange and New World Department Store have appeared on the old street, and Tianjin Street is becoming more and more modern.

Obviously, this is psychologically unacceptable to many people, both locals and outsiders are unwilling to accept it. Moreover, this modernization development is also "tinkering". In terms of modernization, many up-and-coming commercial streets and commercial districts in Dalian are much more modern than Tianjin Street, such as Xi 'an Road Commercial Street.

Third, the impact of online shopping and the decline of Qingniwa Bridge have a great influence on Tianjin Street

Now online shopping and group buying are very convenient. Online shopping is not only cheap, but also delivered to home, which makes many people stop shopping. This is a great blow to the physical business.

At the same time, Tianjin Street Commercial Street and Qingniwa Bridge Business Circle are "close at hand". In recent years, with the decline of Qingniwa Bridge, Tianjin Street has also been affected, resulting in a low popularity.

So, how can we make Tianjin Street lively?

personally, I think that it is necessary to rebuild Tianjin Street, restore the characteristics of Tianjin Street's "time-honored" commercial street, and make more fuss from this aspect of time-honored shops to revitalize it.

First of all, we should show the time-honored characteristics of Tianjin Street and let those time-honored shops gradually return, focusing on the diet.

For example, make snacks around the business district of Tianjin Street, and try to make snacks with "Dalian characteristics", such as braised pork, Dalian seafood, Dalian grilled squid, etc. If it is not enough, foreign characteristics can also be served together. First, develop snacks to hook everyone's "stomach". After all, "food is the most important thing for the people" and eating is an eternal topic for the people.

Facts have proved that if snacks are well prepared, it can really enhance the popularity of Tianjin Street.

I remember a few summers ago, there was a so-called "food festival" in Tianjin Street, where food from all over the world gathered. At this time, the popularity of Tianjin Street will be improved, which shows that this kind of activity is still effective in improving popularity.

Also, since the high-rise buildings in Tianjin Street have been laid out, it is impossible to demolish them. However, the facade rooms on the first floor of the high-rise buildings can be fully utilized to allow catering enterprises to settle in. The decoration should have the characteristics of time-honored brands. The frontispiece of the store can be written in "gold-plated fonts", or the decoration should have the characteristics of old Dalian houses, either Russian houses, Japanese houses or wooden boards outside the glass frame.

Even people with old skills can be invited to settle in, such as sugar blowers and cotton candy makers, and the time-honored brand can be brought back to Tianjin Street, so that people can regain the feeling of that year.

Secondly, the road in the middle of Tianjin Street should be used, and more copper sculpture with the style of Dalian's time-honored brand should be put up. At the intersection with other intersections, some signs with a sense of history can be erected to strengthen the sense of historical vicissitudes of old Dalian in Tianjin Street Commercial Street.

You can even put some restoration models with a sense of history on Tianjin Street, or historical witnesses left after the demolition of residential buildings near Tianjin Street, which is convenient for people who come to Tianjin Street to find the feeling of "going back in time".

In fact, Tianjin Street still has a great location advantage. After all, it is too close to the South Square of Dalian Railway Station, the Friendship Square Station of Metro Line 2, and the Huyue Express Bus Station. The traffic is very convenient. If it is really distinctive, it will attract foreigners to "visit" even if it does not attract locals. We should make good use of this advantage.

In a word, I think that if you want Tianjin Street to be lively again, you must find your own position and focus on "sense of history, focusing on the characteristics of old Dalian". Only in this way can you attract more people and make Tianjin Street gradually "popular" and lively.

As an old Dalian native who lives about two kilometers from Fiona Fang, Tianjin Street, I also hope that Tianjin Street can find its own position, rise again and become a "beautiful business card" of Dalian!

How many pure Dalian people are there in Dalian street now? Tianjin street, feng shui is completely broken! Don't say I'm superstitious. Half on the ground, half underground, and all the old brands have moved away. Let's get some outsiders to keep up the show and dance for two years. Foreigners have learned fine. qnmd, the rent is so high, and it's not popular yet. Let's go!

In miniature, see the big from the small. Where is the future of Dalian? My son's school went to discover the kingdom for three years in a row, and the children all vomited!

At present, all the posts have been filled with the second generation or even the third generation in the North. The oysters are slowly submerged by the ballast, the chef has changed, and the taste has changed. Who will come to your restaurant?

I am nearly sixty years old this year. I was born and raised in Tianjin Street. From the beginning to the present, I have witnessed the prosperity and decline of Tianjin Street. The prosperity of Tianjin Street in the past and the layout of Dalian's business circle at that time were inseparable from the residential pattern of residents! Let's talk about the layout of business districts. In the past, the main business districts in Dalian were around Qingniwa Bridge and Tianjin Street. The high-end goods were basically concentrated in Tianbai, Dashang, Lin Qiu and Jiaodian. Other business districts could only buy some daily necessities. Let's talk about the residential pattern of residents. In the past, Tianjin Street was basically a shop on the first floor, and basically a residential building above the second floor, surrounded by residential buildings, which was full of popularity. Now, after the reform and opening up, major business districts are all over the city, and high-end goods can be bought everywhere. The renovation of Tianjin Street has moved all the residents out. It can be said that Tianjin Street is now devoid of popularity, just like a dead street. Some people have business, and no one has business, so the decline of Tianjin Street is inevitable! If you want to revive the prosperity of Tianjin Street, you must move the residents back. When the popularity comes back, business will prosper!

The topic of revitalizing Tianjin Street has a long history. More than a decade ago, the relevant departments convened people from all walks of life to conduct research and discussion, and the answers given were also various. Because I work in Tianjin Street area, I have the following understandings:

First, the number of residents in Tianjin Street has decreased. In the past, Tianjin Street was densely populated with local and surrounding houses, mostly small buildings with two or three floors, small rooms, poor living environment and a large population. There were more than a dozen families living in a small courtyard, with as few as three or five children, as many as eight or nine, or even more. Now, after renovation and new construction, the living space is enlarged, the living conditions are improved, and the population is divided. In the past, there were hundreds of thousands of people living in Tianjin Street, but now there are only hundreds of thousands.

the second is the diversion of commercial outlets in Tianjin Street. In the past, commercial outlets (daily necessities, catering services, culture and entertainment, etc.) were all concentrated on Tianjin Street, and Tianjin Street was the main way for work, life and study. Nowadays, commercial outlets are scattered, and all kinds of goods can be bought everywhere. Tianjin Street is no longer a distribution center for citizens to live, work and study.

Third, Tianjin Street lacks characteristics nowadays. In the past, Tianjin Street was dotted with catering industries, each with its own characteristics, such as Jinhua Noodle Restaurant, Majia jiaozi, Yangjia Hanging Furnace Cake, Sichuan Hotel, glutinous rice fragrance, Suyang Hotel, Wang Mazi fried dumpling, and so on. Photo studios, bookstores, cinemas and theaters abound. Nowadays, the specialty snacks are not concentrated in the east and the west, and the door is not eye-catching. In addition, people are not limited to eating now, and all kinds of specialty dishes are available in all directions. Tianjin street will not form a climate.

Fourth, Tianjin Street is no longer the only center in Dalian. In the past, the center of Dalian was Zhongshan, and the core of Zhongshan was Tianjin Street. Now, this pattern has been broken, with Xi 'an Road commercial circle in the west and South China commercial circle in the north. The extension of the west to the north has become a new commercial pattern in Dalian, and the glory of Tianjin Street is impossible to talk about. But it is not without new ideas. Personal views are understood from the following aspects:

One should highlight the characteristics. Do things that are not available in other places, and do not agree with similar services, such as highlighting glutinous rice fragrance, Wang Mazi fried dumpling, Yangjia furnace cake, Majia jiaozi and other children's entertainment activities, which are suitable for children's diet and entertainment services. The relevant departments of the latter should understand the secrets.

one service should be highlighted. Shanghai's Xintiandi should learn from it. There are all kinds of delicious food, entertainment and leisure in the pedestrian street. When you are tired, there are chairs for tourists to rest at any time. The services of various businesses are also first-class.

one is outstanding convenience. Nowadays, cars have entered thousands of households, and sightseeing has become the first choice for citizens and foreign tourists. It is imperative to build many parking lots. Can the parking lot near Tianjin Street become the first area that does not collect money? (In the future, the commercial area will not charge parking fees, which is the biggest winner), and the relevant departments will realize the mystery themselves.

one is to highlight the resultant force. All the advantages are combined to form a joint force, and the management department gives preferential treatment to the merchants (including taxes and low rental fees), creating a good experience environment and attracting many citizens and tourists to spend.

The last one is to build Tianjin Street with culture. Establish and build some cultural activities that ordinary people like, such as calligraphy and painting, photography, collection, antique exhibition, comic dialogue sketch, and so on.

It can boost the prosperity of Tianjin Street.

these are my personal thoughts, which are not necessarily accurate, but my personal understanding for many years. Please forgive me for the mistake.

The subject asked about Tianjin Street, but I think you might as well ask Dalian. Can you see the future in this city? What are the characteristics? What is the focus of future development? What attracts talents? Old Dalian people have begun to wake up from the idea that China is not as good as Dalian. If Dalian wants to develop, it must find its own direction. If you want to develop tourism, first talk about what you have to eat and play. Don't tell me about Tiger Beach and Shengya. Which coastal city doesn't have an aquarium? Inland cities have it; Don't talk to me about bad food, it may not be as popular as the night market in an unknown small county; Not to mention shopping malls, where there is no big shopping mall? The only thing that Dalian can support itself now is its geographical advantage at the southernmost tip of Northeast China. The government must set a good position for Dalian and lead everyone to work together in this direction. Anyway, as a citizen of Dalian, I don't see what Dalian wants to focus on and which direction it wants to go.

the decoration is so gorgeous that the poor can't afford it.

it's out of date! At that time, our materials were scarce, our income was extremely low, and our consumption was tight. On Sunday, go shopping in Tianjin Street, have some snacks and look at the goods (that's called ordering goods). Relatives of distinguished guests came to our home, so we tried our best to go there for a meal, such as Sichuan restaurant, Suyang restaurant, Wangmazi fried dumpling shop and Xiuzhu restaurant. At that time, the consumption was just to watch movies, take photos, read books at Xinhua Bookstore, go around antique bookstores, go shopping at Tianbai, and buy clothes for children at women's and children's products stores. In the early days of reform and opening up, Tianjin Street was set ablaze with friendly snacks and Puzhao Street market. At that time, foreigners just started to flow into Dalian, and Korean cold noodles, raw beef and Mingtai fish were all the rage in Xianzu restaurants. Guangzhou version of clothing wholesale goods in Puzhao Street, kraft paper shoes in Wenzhou, and so on are all over the street. With the changes of the times, people's living standards have improved a lot. Once upon a time, Tianjin Street was depressed, probably because of the establishment of Dashang Group, the development of the western business circle, and the closure of the world, which made Tianjin Street more and more devastated. Now, Tianjin Street is only left in the memory of the elderly. Those tall, refined, expensive, famous and special goods will not leave any good impression on middle-aged and elderly people. Again, benefiting the people is the way out, and being greedy and demanding stinks all over the street!

In 26, I was admitted to the university from the countryside, studied in Dalian Development Zone for 4 years, and then went back to my hometown for 1 year after graduation. In 11 years, I went back to Dalian to seek development, and I have lived in this city for 13 years. I have a stable and hungry job, and I have a lot of rest time. During this period, I have done a lot of odd jobs, mainly in stalls. Let's talk briefly about the business environment in Dalian. Please forgive me if I say something wrong. I can't remember from 15 years or 16 years. Dalian began to make efforts to rectify the mess, occupy the street and occupy the road, ban the night market, and illegally demolish it. It was really a good thing from the perspective of environmental protection, but it damaged the livelihood of a group of people at the bottom, and the unified management of the night market in the later stage was delayed, because many people at the bottom (mostly foreigners) could not afford the rent. You can't kill yourself with a stick here. Those who have many years of business experience can still make money, but it is very unfriendly to the small family who just started. I haven't been to other cities, so I dare not judge myself, but as far as Dalian is concerned, the rent of shops is really outrageous. The rent of a 6-square-meter storefront is 6, a year, not including the transfer fee. The rent of a 3-square-meter small door in the university is 3,, and the transfer fee is 35,. Some people may say that the rent is naturally high with a good corner, which is correct. What I want to say is that it is not easy for rental shops to earn back the rent in half a year. The foreign population can't stay, and the brain drain of high-end talents is the root cause of the slow development of the city. Dalian is based on tourism, but how many tourist attractions have been developed in these 13 years? It's estimated that all the tourists are so funny that they throw up.

To sum up, it really needs the contemporary leaders to point out the way forward to develop this city well.

As a real estate developer and a Dalian native, I want to say a few words. First of all, when a city's population increases, many business circles are formed in the city, and the formation of multiple residential groups leads to the diversion of business consumption. Second, a new mode of business upgrading is added to the business circle. Regardless of planning,
