PRP undertook a comprehensive assessment of the business viability of the key areas and the resulting masterplan has achieved the following:

*Improving the image of the City
*Opening up the river frontage, which is currently used as a road
*Creating a central connection of green space through the City with links to the riverside, which will increase the quality of light and air within the Central Business District
*Creating a visual link through the City - with 'green lungs' to the riverside
*Facilitate the movement of industry away from the City centre to surrounding areas
*Creating two further bridges to link the Central Business District with the mainland
*Improving the environmental performance of existing buildings
*Reducing the residential population within the centre

PRP Director John Chapman comments: "Chongqing was a complex project as the City had grown organically and there was no central framework. The resulting masterplan has introduced a more European style masterplan by opening up the river frontage to improve the urban quality. We have successfully created 'green corridors' throughout the City, which create a visual link through the district and vastly improve the central space."

PRP has undertaken several projects in China including the redevelopment of the Pencil Factory in Chongqing, into a residential high rise development now known as Oxford Street. Also the redevelopment of the EBHOR headquarters in Shenzhen City. For further information on PRP visit its website http://www.prparchitects.co.uk
