Former Site of the Tianjin Military Control Commission and the CPC Tianjin Municipal Committee

On January 15, 1949, when Tianjin was liberated, the People's Liberation Army Tianjin Military Control Commission was established in the then Tianjin Public Assembly Building (now No. 12 Chengde Road). Central authorities appointed Huang Kecheng as the director of the Military Control Commission, with Huang Jing and Tan Zheng as deputy directors, and the Tianjin Municipal People's Government was also formed.

The Tianjin Military Control Commission and the CPC Tianjin Municipal Committee did not stay long in the Tianjin Public Assembly Building. Due to work needs, they relocated to Zhang Garden (now No. 59 Anshan Road). The Tianjin Public Assembly Building later served as the Tianjin Library, the Tianjin Children's Library, and the Tianjin Art Museum, and is now the site of the Tianjin Municipal Cultural Relics Bureau. In 2006, the State Council designated the building as a National Key Cultural Relics Protection Unit.
