On the same day, reporters came to the Nanhe Street project site in Daowai District, Harbin and saw that the exterior facade of the rebuilt new building was imitation red brick. Inside the building, the wall columns were still covered with protective films, and workers were conducting final inspections. In front of the distribution box, resident representatives and staff who came to the acceptance meeting checked the switch logos, circuit numbers, and wiring conditions one by one.

The old building at No. 112-1, Nanhe Street, Daowai District, was built in the 1930s. It has three floors and is nearly 90 years old. There is no bathroom or independent kitchen in the building. It has long-term problems such as cold winter and leakage in summer, aging pipelines, and perennial blockage of sewers. In 2023, the building was identified as a Class D dangerous building by a professional organization, and all residents moved out for safety. On July 18 this year, as the first demolition and reconstruction pilot project of dilapidated housing fully funded by residents in Heilongjiang Province, the demolition and reconstruction of this building started.

According to reports, the project is to build a new multi-story residential building facing the street and with a construction area of about 700 square meters by exchanging land with state-owned enterprises in Daowai District. All residences are designed as complete units, equipped with independent kitchens, bathrooms, and supporting facilities such as drainage, gas, heating, and elevators. Under the premise of ensuring quality, after nearly 4 months of construction, the conditions for completion acceptance have been met.

The reporter learned that the windows in the building are made of argon-filled materials, which can not only effectively seal indoors and outdoors, but also insulate and reduce noise, which is especially suitable for the cold and cold regions of Northeast China. During the design and construction, spaces for refrigerators, washing machines and air conditioners were reserved for residents.

After the project passes the completion acceptance, the project department will fully carry out the finishing work. At the same time, with the support of the housing construction, real estate and other departments, we will speed up the docking with various departments and units, and handle the relevant real estate procedures for the residents throughout the process, so that the residents who move back can achieve "handover of the house and the certificate".
