Historical blocks are the symbols of city history and culture, and also the main content of sustainable development of urban landscape in the new era. They reflect the development trajectory of a city in different historical periods and condense the historical memory of several generations of a city. The renovation of historical blocks should not only focus on spatial form, but also pay attention to socio-economic and cultural factors.
