    消失的里弄

     
    刚到上海的时候,还在对“弄”这个词所困惑,对于新一代的移民来说这个词的含义也许并不是那么明显的,看过些许书籍,才知道在过去很多的时间里,上海人熟悉的是里弄,也就是现在所称呼的时兴的社区。
     
    “五户为邻,五邻为弄”,弄,则是小巷子,据说18世纪末已经出现在上海,里弄的大量建造则是在19世纪六七十年代以后的事。那时的上海,华人洋人杂居的局面开始不久,人口增长很快,普通市民要求房价低些再低些,当时的房地产商则为了最大商业利益,两相结合,占地不大而容量可观的转木结构老式石库门里弄应运而生。
     
    高楼之下,大街两旁,便是里弄,寻找老上海风情最理想的就是这里,百姓聚居的地方,普通人的喜怒哀乐,一个城市百年的故事,都融化在这些普通的建筑中,而现代与历史的交汇在一个叫做“新天地”的地方有了体现,它在都市生活中构筑了一个寄留情趣的空间,一个伫步养心的地方。其实新天地的格调非常现代、时尚。这些改造后的石库门房子,已将原先的一户户隔墙全部打通,在视角上,呈现出宽敞、明亮的空间,里面既有装饰繁琐的欧式壁炉、现代布艺沙发等西式配置,又有线条简练的明式八仙桌、藤面的方凳等东方什物,墙上,挂着现代油画,地上,摆着立式老唱机,门外是风情万种的石库门弄堂,门内是精致细腻的现代生活。就这样,两种不同的生活从容而平和的相处,显得优雅而脱俗,似乎深藏难以说尽的禅意。
     
    环顾四周,看着那些被修整过的石库门,眼波流转之际,心神也不禁驰骋,光影切换之际,让我不可遏至的想像老上海时代的男子女子,如何身穿长袍和旗袍,优雅地走在历史的街道里,喧嚣的都市中,心境犹如墙角飞檐,安静高远。
