Yates Apartments, Art Deco residential building in Jing'an District, China.
Yates Apartments is a residential building with Art Deco design built in the early 20th century, located in central Shanghai within the Jing'an District. The structure sits among tree-lined streets and near other historic buildings from the same era.
The complex was designed by Luke Him Sau during a period of major architectural transformation in Shanghai. It became part of the Former French Concession's building heritage from that era.
The building reflects how Western and Chinese design traditions came together in early Shanghai, visible in its exterior details and overall form. This blend of influences remains evident to anyone walking past its distinctive facade today.
The building sits near Huaihai Lu with easy access to Shanghai's metro system and local services. Nearby are shopping centers, restaurants, and various entertainment options within walking distance.
The facade displays geometric patterns from the 1920s that reflect the distinctive architectural approach of Shanghai during that decade. These decorative details set the building apart from many other residences in the area.
