EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, taken circa 1928, offers a breathtaking aerial view of Racecourse and Bubbling Well Road in Shanghai, China during the 1920s. The image showcases the vibrant energy and progress of this bustling metropolis during an era of significant growth and modernization. In the foreground, the expansive Racecourse is prominently featured, where horse racing was a popular pastime for both locals and expatriates. The lush greenery and well-manicured grounds contrast sharply with the urban landscape beyond. The racecourse was a symbol of Western influence, having been established by the British in the late 1800s. Bubbling Well Road, named after the natural springs that once flowed beneath it, runs parallel to the racecourse and is lined with an array of buildings under construction. Among them, the China United Apartments and the YMCA (Young Men's Christian Association) can be distinguished. The China United Apartments, with its distinctive Art Deco design, were a desirable address for affluent residents, while the YMCA served as a cultural and recreational hub for the community. The photograph provides a fascinating glimpse into Shanghai's rich history, showcasing the city's unique blend of Eastern and Western architectural styles and the vibrant energy that defined life in this dynamic and cosmopolitan city during the 1920s.
