Waterfront areas, due to their natural geographic proximity to water bodies, have historically been hubs for large-scale industrial and related industries. However, in recent years,with the rapid advancement of urbanization, industrial projects in urban waterfront areas have gradually relocated, creating an urgent need for the transformation and renewal of urban waterfront industrial heritage.
