Shanghai Navy YMCA, Heritage building in Huangpu District, Shanghai, China
The Shanghai Navy YMCA stands as a nine-story structure with blue glazed tiles and stone-arched gates at 630 Sichuan Middle Road.
The building, completed in 1923, served as a meeting place for naval personnel and Chinese intellectuals during the resistance against Japanese aggression in the 1930s.
Chinese architects Poy Gum Lee, Fan Wenzhao, and Zhao Shen combined traditional Chinese palace elements with modern architectural designs in this structure.
The building now operates as Jinjiang Metropolo Hotel Classiq while maintaining a small exhibition of historical photographs in the lobby area.
The stone staircases, beamed ceilings, and latticed windows represent the first successful integration of Chinese architectural elements into a modern building in Shanghai.
