FORMER FRENCH
CONCESSION

It’s likely that your life in the Former French Concession (a.k.a. FFC) will be so fulfilling that you won’t feel the need to leave the area as it has it all. Cozy coffee shops, all types of restaurants, bars, bakeries, butchers, deli shops and import supermarkets, name it and the FFC has it.

Besides popular apartment compounds like Ambassy Court, Chevalier, The Summit, Central Residence, Stanford Xuhui, Joffre Garden, Grand Plaza, Beverly Court and many more located in FFC, we can also find a unique type of housing called “Lane Houses”. Lane Houses are traditional Shanghai style houses that were built 60-70 years ago. Lane Houses are in the original old buildings but are often nicely designed, which makes them a popular choice amongst both foreigners and Chinese.

 

 

The main metro lines going through FFC are lines 1, 7, 10 and 12.
