This 110 sqm two-bedroom is genuinely brand new and unfurnished: mattresses are still in factory plastic wrap, and one bed frame isn’t yet assembled. A floor-to-ceiling window in one bedroom opens onto a real skyline view over the surrounding towers. Central ducted air conditioning runs throughout. The bathroom is a simple white-tile walk-in shower, no tub. Rent runs typical for West Nanjing Road at this size.

A 6-minute walk to Chang Ping Lu metro station, in Jing’an.
