In this renovation, the internal structure of the house was repaired and reinforced. By renovating the roof tiles, replacing the gutters, and adding waterproofing to the roof, problems such as house damage and roof leakage were solved, which improved the building's usability and safety. In terms of the building's exterior facade, the original color of the exterior wall paint was roughened and repaired, and the original steel doors and windows were replaced with new ones of the same color. The severely damaged octagonal pavilion roof was renovated with its original roof tiles and given an old treatment to make the exterior facade more attractive. Coordinate and unify.

The indoor space is composed of four sections, reflecting the development process from "city park" to "park city" through the exhibition flow line of "history, present and future".

The outdoor environment adheres to the design concept of green, open and enjoyable, and adopts modern and simple design techniques to effectively organize the various elements of garden design to form two garden spaces in the east and west. The east garden retains the old woody vines and the original large trees, one high and one low, with the same pitch; new maples, rhododendrons and other plants are planted, and a combined flower border is set up so that the garden has flowers all year round. The West Garden generally creates a modern oriental landscape charm, using permeable walls to borrow the park scenery. The garden layout uses modern techniques to fit the artistic conception of traditional oriental gardens. In a limited space, people can feel the spirit of free and vast landscapes, which is in harmony with The Party and Mass Service Station formed an effective response to the concept of "Park City".

To celebrate the victory of the Anti-Japanese War and the rejuvenation of the nation, the island was named Fuxing Island, and a "Fuxing Island Recovery Monument" was built in the garden to commemorate it.

After the liberation of Shanghai, the Port Authority took over and renovated the park. It was handed over to the Public Works Bureau in February 1951. After some repairs, it was opened to the public on May 28.
