The Shuinan Economic and Trade Park (traditional Chinese: 臺中水湳經貿生態園區; simplified Chinese: 台中水湳经贸生态园区; pinyin: Táizhōng Shuǐnǎn Jīngmào Shēngtài Yuánqū) is an industrial park in Xitun District, Taichung, Taiwan.

The park utilizes a variety of techniques for salvaging the grey site into a usable urban space.[3]

Architecture

The industrial park spans over an area of 250 hectares and consists of cultural district, college town and canal district.[4] The park was designed by Stan Allen Architects.[5]
