Text description provided by the architects. Located on the top level of no. 23 at 389 Lane, East Jinling Road, the Dream Reformer's Tower House was originally a water tower constructed in the 1920s and rebuilt in the 1980s. It had a total area of 39m2 and two floors connected by a ladder, which was occupied by the kitchen. The house had been in such a bad state of disrepair that it almost seemed a ruin.
