ABSTRACT: Urban renewal is on the agenda as China’s cities continue to expand and old industries remain in urban centers, hindering the construction of new urbanization. However, these industrial heritages have not been effectively utilized due to lack of protection. During the 40 years of reform and opening up, the label of Chengdu has changed from industrial civilization to livable city. In this process, Chengdu has not only completed the economic take-off, but also promoted the transformation and development of the city. As the cradle of Chengdu industrial base, the eastern suburb industrial zone of Chengdu has experienced four stages of development, prosperity, decline and relocation. With the introduction of “Chengdu Excellent Modern Architecture Protection Plan”, it began to be preserved as an industrial heritage. Taking the eastern suburb industrial zone of Chengdu as an example, this paper summarizes the evolution process of the eastern suburb industrial zone of Chengdu in combination with urban transportation, and puts forward the possibility of future transformation, innovation and development strategy through summarizing the existing problems.
