A major thoroughfare that connected the heart of the French Concession with the Catholic district of Zikawei, the boulevard was for much of the 20th century the centre of Shanghai's premier residential district. Since the 1990s, many of the mansions along the road have been converted into bars, night clubs, and restaurants.
