Jing An Four Seasons, 333 Shimen Yi Rd

The relatively small Jing’an Four Seasons residence lacks many of the things that larger compounds have – shallow ponds and lush greenery, outdoor BBQ areas, etc. – but all of that seems insignificant once you understand where it’s located; Jing’an Four Seasons’ developers chose to build their project right on top of the West Nanjing Road metro station (Lines 2/12/13), in the heart of Shanghai. Since residents are ensconced away from noise pollution from passing metro trains or bustling crowds, it’s a popular choice with city-lovers. The space they do have is cleverly used to include a small garden and onsite amenities.
