China Rhyming » Blog Archive » Range Road – A Mystery Solved – Seventh Day Adventists in Old Shanghai


Back in April I appealed for help in identifying a rather interesting building that had been perplexing me on the old Range Road (now Wujin Road). Range Road marked the northern border of the International Settlement in Hongkou (Hongkew) where it met Chinese Shanghai in the form of Paoshan (now Boashan). The structure – below – seemed to me neither residential, commercial or quite (despite feint overtones) religious while not being typical of any Shanghai Municipal Council architectural styles. Just to jog your memory here it is:
Anyway, the very smartypants (and excellent photographer) Sue Anne Tay appears to have solved the mystery. She managed to acertain (in fine Sherlock Holmes style…or is that Nancy Drew?) that the building covers several numbers including numbers 193 but also 181 and 171 Wujin Road. Still, she has worked out that this is indeed the former Seventh-Day Adventist Church (沪北会堂), which feels right – religious feeling but not a classical style ....

[Shanghai and Vicinity.]: Geographicus Rare Antique Maps


    1 : 126720
Description
This is a scarce Showa 7, or 1932 map illustrating the vicinity of Shanghai shortly after the Shanghai Incident of 1932. The map was produced to illustrate the shanghai suburban region, and as such covers from the confluence of the Huangpu with the Yangtze to the sharp bend in the Huangpu near modern day Sheshang and Xixie. The Hunagpu River runs through the center of the map, with the International Settlement and French Concession areas highlighted in pink - essentially forming a demilitarized zone in the wake of the January 28th Japanese attack on Shanghai. The map seems to have been adapted with overprinting to add additional detail, including hachuring that identifies high-density population zones in the Chinese quarter south of the French Concession. Further coding identifies towns and villages of varying sizes. As well, the map beautiful illustrates the elaborate canal system surrounding Shanghai - which functioned as a de facto hi ....

Description
An extremely rare bi-lingual Chinese/English map of Shanghai, China, here in its second edition, issued by the Shanghai-Japanese cartographer Sugie Fusazō (杉江房造) in March of 1930, or Showa 5. This is the second of Sugie Fusazō s maps to include a panorama of the city (more specifically the Bund), and the first to depict the bund from across the Huangpu River, a convention coped on the 1932 Cross House map (Shanghai-crosshouse-1932), and one that would be followed in many later editions of the map. The map focus is on the extraterritorial Foreign Concessions huddled around the confluence of the Hunagpu River (Whangpoo) and Soochow Creek (Suzhou). The Japanese area is highlighted in orange, the British in red, the American in Pink, and the large separate French Concession in Yellow. The map extends westward along the Extraterritorial Roads, also administered by the Concessions, as far a ....
