“城市更新”

Urban renewal

即对城市建成区城市空间形态和城市功能的持续完善和优化调整，严控大拆大建，严守安全底线，严格生态保护，是小规模、渐进式、可持续的更新。本市城市更新主要聚焦以下几个方面：服务“四个中心”建设优化提升首都功能；城市公共空间、公共服务设施、市政交通等基础设施系统完善；居民住房条件、小区环境及配套设施优化改善；老旧低效楼宇转型升级；历史文化街区保护利用；低效产业园区和老旧厂房改造更新等。

This refers to continuous efforts to improve and adjust the city's spatial organization and urban functions in the developed areas. Beijing will strictly control large-scale demolition and construction, implement strict safety standards, and rigorously protect the ecosystem. This renewal is small scale, incremental and sustainable. It focuses on the following: strengthening Beijing's position as "the four centers" and upgrading Beijing's functions as the capital; improving infrastructure such as urban public spaces, public service facilities and public transportation; optimizing residential housing conditions as well as the environs and supporting facilities of residential communities; upgrading old buildings and under- or mis-utilized buildings; protecting and utilizing historical and cultural areas; and transforming and renovating industrial parks and old industrial buildings.
