China News Service, Xiongan, September 24 (Chen Shiyu, Li Yusu, Han Bing) The main project of the first batch of four decentralized colleges and universities in Xiongan New District is currently entering a critical stage of construction. According to the plan, it will fully open in the fall of 2027 to welcome the new year. Recently, the author visited the Xiongan New District Xuefu City project, a key livelihood project serving the first batch of four colleges and universities. While the construction of school buildings is progressing steadily, the housing facilities that relieve the faculty and staff are most concerned about have also been implemented simultaneously.
According to Yao Jianmin, deputy director of the University Support Development Department of China Xiongan Group Urban Development Investment Co., Ltd., the first phase of the Xuefu City project has now entered the comprehensive final acceptance stage, and it is planned to start the commercial housing approval process at the end of September this year. “The first phase of the project focuses on the faculty and their families of the first four relocation universities, while also taking into account the housing needs of the area’s resident talents, industry practitioners and other groups.”
Yao Jianmin said that the Xuefu City project aims to create a safe, comfortable, green and smart "good house" benchmark, and polishes its products around the living habits and actual needs of university faculty and staff. For example, he said that in terms of hardware technology, the project uses multiple noise reduction technologies such as triple-glass and double-cavity insulating glass and thickened floor slabs, which can fully meet the rigid needs of teachers such as lesson preparation, scientific research, and writing papers at night.
"The buildings in the project are fully furnished with high-end configurations, allowing you to move in right away. At the same time, the buildings in the project are all low-density residences from 6 to 14 floors. The community is equipped with pocket parks, slow walking trails, and sponge city facilities to create a green and livable community environment and effectively ensure that the distributed talents can live safely and comfortably." Yao Jianmin said.
In addition to housing, children’s education, medical treatment, and commercial facilities are practical issues that teachers are generally concerned about. In this regard, Yao Jianmin said that the Xuefu City project focuses on creating a “15-minute high-quality living circle”.
Yao Jianmin said that Xuefu City is located in the northern area of the fifth group of the starting area, across the road from four integrated universities, and naturally has the location conditions for "leaving home and entering school". Focusing on alleviating the practical needs of faculty and staff, the Xuefu City project integrates six major business formats: residential, commercial, office, hotel, apartment, and public services to achieve a balance between work and housing and the integration of campus and city.
"In terms of public service facilities, we have planned kindergartens, primary schools, junior high schools, and high schools, which can provide one-stop enrollment for the children of college faculty and staff, solve the worries of college faculty and staff, and allow talents to be attracted, retained, and developed well," Yao Jianmin said.
Wang Zhiran, an employee of the company who brought his children from Beijing to see the house, is most concerned about the educational facilities: "The primary schools and middle schools provided by this project are high-quality educational resources, which is a more attractive point."
"In the future, we will continue to deepen the integration of campus and city, promote resource sharing and functional linkage between communities and universities, and practice the housing concept of 'overall undertaking, precise guarantee, and thoughtful service' to empower the development of the higher education science and innovation industry in Xiongan New Area and the high-quality construction of the new area," Yao Jianmin said.
