蕃瓜弄位于上海闸北区中部,在旧社会是上海典型的棚户区。住户多系劳动人民,他们在解放前受尽压迫和剥削,居住条件极端恶劣。解放后,居住条件虽已大有改善,但还是比较差的。随着人民生活水平的不断提高,迫切需要改善居住条件。针对这种情况,闸北区安排在近期就对此街坊进行改建。 Fan Gua Nong is located in the central part of Shanghai’s Zhabei District. In the old society, it was a typical shantytown in Shanghai. Most of the households are working people. They were subjected to oppression and exploitation before liberation, and their living conditions were extremely harsh. After liberation, although the living conditions have greatly improved, it is still relatively poor. With the continuous improvement of people’s living standards, there is an urgent need to improve living conditions. In response to this situation, Zhabei District arranged for the reconstruction of this neighborhood in the near future.
