During the old Shanghai period, most of the western and central parts of the French Concession and the Shanghai Public Concession belonged to the upper corner, while the China boundary and other urban-rural junctions belonged to the lower corner.
The distribution of the New Upper Corner generally continues the framework of the old Shanghai period and extends to Huangpu District, Jing 'an District, Xuhui District and Changning District, which are the core urban areas of Shanghai today. With the deepening of the transformation of the old city of Shanghai and the practical implementation of the North-South balance strategy, the scope of the upper corner of Shanghai will gradually expand to the whole central city of Shanghai.
