上海外滩交通综合改造二期工程因防汛墙外移、道路拓宽,原在延安东路外滩的天文台将落在主车道上而严重影响交通。为保留这座有一定存在价值的历史性建筑,须向东搬迁约15m,并使之成为新外滩绿化带上的一个最点。经对天文台是拆除仿建还是整体移位两种方案进行反复比较,并根据气象台外观虽已陈旧但结构仍较完好的实际情况,结合自己数十年积累的施工经验,确定 In the second phase of the Shanghai Bund Comprehensive Traffic Improvement Project, due to the relocation of flood control walls and widening of roads, the Observatory, originally on the Bund of Yan’an East Road, will fall on the main lane and seriously affect traffic. In order to retain this historic building with certain existing value, it is necessary to relocate it to the east for about 15m and make it a point of the new Bund green belt. After repeated comparisons of the two schemes of the dismantling of the Observatory or the displacement of the whole, and according to the fact that the meteorological observatory has an old appearance but the structure is still relatively intact, combined with its own decades of accumulated construction experience, it is determined.
