The Past and Present of Fuzhou Student Street
Fuzhou Student Street, also known as Normal University Student Street, is located next to the Cangshan Campus of Fujian Normal University. It took shape in the 1980s. In the 1990s, colleges and universities expanded their enrollment. As a result, the number of students from various colleges and universities near the Student Street has increased dramatically, which has promoted the development of surrounding businesses. The number of shops has increased sharply, forming a very popular commercial street.
Today, Student Street has developed into a famous commercial district characterized by a complete range of products, high quality and low prices. There are hundreds of shops along the four to five hundred meter long street.
In March 2004, Shoushan Road was widened and a new Shoushan Road Student Street appeared. In 2008, the old city across the street from the Normal University students was renovated and a student city square was built. The scale of the student street business district is expanding day by day.
Most of the areas around Normal University Street are low-rise old housing areas with numerous telephone poles and various wires like cobwebs, posing great fire safety hazards. There are many colleges and universities nearby, and with the tourists coming here to visit, the student street has been congested for a long time, making it difficult to ensure traffic safety. The sewage pipe network is not perfect, and the hygiene problems caused by food stalls and food stalls are equally serious.
No matter which university in Fuzhou you study in, Cangshan Student Street is a shopping "holy place" for students. Even graduated students have left memories of their youth here. Student Street is famous in Fuzhou for selling all kinds of trendy clothes, accessories, small commodities, and snacks. Every night, many students gather here from all directions to "Taobao" for high-quality and low-priced goods... The crowded student street has become one of the busiest commercial streets in Fuzhou.
Fuzhou Municipal Planning Bureau approved the "Construction Project Site Selection Opinion" and will renovate Normal University Street and the surrounding old housing area of ??more than 50,000 square meters. Student Street, which has experienced nearly 30 years of ups and downs, is about to undergo urban reconstruction. From now on, Student Street can only become a memory of our youth.
The student street old house renovation area is located on the east side of Fujian Normal University's Dacangshan campus, starting from the Shipu intersection of Shangsan Road in the north and ending at Fujian University of Economics in the south. It is connected to Sunshine New Village, with a total area of ??52,078.5 square meters. According to relevant sources, after the demolition and reconstruction of Student Street, Shipu Road (the existing Normal University Student Street) will be expanded and residential and commercial housing will be planned to be constructed. Whether the student street can be preserved still needs to wait for approval from relevant departments.
