8 Park Avenue

Compound
Located in the central district of Jing’an, 8 Park Avenue is trendy, modern, and high-end. Though the residence is blissfully quiet, a quick stroll through the compound’s winding pathways will give you a glimpse of its international and diverse tenants – local and foreign, young and old, families and young professionals.

And while it is chalk full of features that are the norm – abundant greenery, a gym, etc. – 8 Park Avenue does it better than most. The clubhouse is kept well-maintained and its jewel feature, a 50-metre indoor swimming pool, boasts a dome roof and a glass wall that looks out onto a small stream and a rocky cliff wall. A natural oasis in the heart of Shanghai.

8 Park Avenue’s full range of amenities includes everything from a small bowling alley to an outdoor tennis court, and the onsite staff are incredibly polite and helpful. To the relief of many residents, the immediate area surrounding the compound is calm, lacking the “hustle-and-bustle” that is characteristic of the greater part of inner Shanghai.

Neighborhood
West Nanjing Road (and the famous Jing’an Temple) is just a 15 minute walk away. There you’ll find anything and everything that you could possibly need, including fitness centers, cafes, international supermarkets, English-speaking healthcare specialists, 5-star hotels, hair and nail salons, clothing stores, and more. The area’s varied and endless dining options even include no less than three Michelin-starred restaurants.

While some residents have a car, this area of Shanghai is easy to navigate by foot, bike, or metro, and 8 Park Avenue is just a 5 minute walk from Changping Road metro station (Line 7) or a 15 minute walk from Jing’an Temple metro station (Line 2 & 7). Many of the city's popular areas are within easy reach, including People’s square (15 min. by car) and the Bund (25 min. by car).
