Train Passing Through 19-Story Apartment Building In China

In a unique and innovative urban development, Chongqing, southeast China, boasts a light rail transit station seamlessly integrated into a 19-story apartment building. The transit station, through which the train passes, is a distinctive feature offering accessibility to residents residing within the building.

China – Convenient Residential Access

Residents seeking to utilize the Chongqing Rail Transport No.2 need only reach the sixth or eighth level to access the Liziba Station within their residential complex. This unconventional approach to public transportation reflects the city’s commitment to creative solutions in the face of urban challenges.

Mountain City’s Unique Infrastructure

Chongqing, often referred to as the “Mountain City” due to its towering structures, accommodates a staggering population of 49 million within a limited area of 31,000 square miles. Given the spatial constraints, the city’s railway engineers devised innovative strategies to ensure efficient transportation for its residents.

China – Silent and Efficient Light Rail

Opened thirteen years ago, the light rail system running through the apartment building is celebrated for its smoke-free design, low noise, and minimal vibration. Designed to operate as quietly as a dishwasher, the train barely registers on the audibility scale, contributing to a tranquil living environment for residents.

Minimal Noise Pollution

Residents need not worry about noise pollution, as the transit system is projected to produce approximately 60 decibels of noise during its transit. This thoughtful design consideration aligns with Chongqing’s commitment to sustainable and resident-friendly urban planning.

Cheng noted, “Extending the railway line this way was a gamble, but it paid off.”

This extraordinary integration of public transportation into residential spaces showcases Chongqing’s commitment to finding innovative solutions for the benefit of its residents.
