Development in the area continues to grow, with projects like the Dong'an urban renewal and the extension of Longteng Avenue paving the way for future expansion. The completion of the "Park City Demonstration Area" design competition sets the stage for the next phase of development.

As 2026 marks the start of the 15th Five-Year Plan (2026-30), the alliance is now focused on moving from "focused breakthroughs" to "ecological win-win" strategies. By building brand value, enhancing the industrial ecosystem and increasing international influence, Xuhui Riverside aims to become a new urban icon representing Shanghai to the world.
