碩士 / 中國文化大學 / 建築及都市設計學系 / 104 / Having been regulated by the Tientsin treaty in 1858, the Qing dynasty was forced to set up the concession in Tamsui district. Having been taken the advantage of the opening of the treaty port, the Tamsui area gradually became the most prosperous district in Northern Taiwan. Apart from the political incentive, the popularity of the hong-trading model and the steamboat transportation at the time did bring the economic incentives for the development of the Feng-huo port in the west part of the Tamsui district. Compared with the previous desolate scenery, the harbor area transforms into the well-off panorama after the all new harbor and buildings appeared in the area. The result of the transformation was profoundly influenced by the political and economic motives.
In 1895, Taiwan and the Pescadores was ceded to Japan after the defeat of the Qing dynasty and the initiation of the Shimonoseki Treaty. The Taiwanese territory was included into the jurisdiction of Japan. Owing to the natural causes, the Tamsui concession in course of time failed to function as usual during the Japanese occupation era. The Japanese administration was anxious to construct the newly Keelung port to replace the gradual-declined Tamsui port. In policy, the Japanese authority issued the regulations of the designated shipping route, the monopoly trading right, etc., in order to decrease the profit obtained by the foreign firms in Taiwan. Moreover, the government change the land policy. As a result, the foreign companies cannot own and sell the property as usual.
Being affected by the disadvantaged policies, many foreign firms renounced their business operations in the Taiwanese market. The impact reflected directly in the development of the Feng-huo port section. The withdrawal of the foreign companies and the erection of new governmental buildings symbolized the retreat of the western power during the Japanese occupation period. The Feng-huo port section was employed by the authority as the region of the legal affairs where many official institutions, such as the police station, the firefighting agency, the registration office, etc., were established.
After World War II, Taiwan returned to the jurisdiction of the Republic of China. In order to provide the residences for the soldiers and their family from the mainland China, many military dependents’ villages were set up in Tamsui area. Being adjacent to the navy base, the Feng-huo port section was chosen by the Chinese government as the ideal place for setting up the military dependents’ villages. Influenced by the rise of the Taiwanese Provincialism in 1970, the initiation of the Cultural Heritage Protection Act became possible. For the purpose of Tamsui tourism, the policy of the government in recent years is trying to turn the Feng-huo port area into an artistic village by cooperating with the revitalization reality of the cultural heritage within the region.
In sum, the imposition of the political, economic, and cultural variation in different period of time to the particular area do cause directly the tremendous impacts and eventually the transformation of the function of the place. Being converted from the trading center in Qing era, through the local administrative center in Japanese occupation period, to the revitalization reality of the cultural heritage in Republican age, the transformation of the spatial function of the Feng-huo section in question was proved to be the case.
