History

In 1850, it was named Majiachuankou (马家船口, literally the wharf of Ma clan) when the wharf was owned by the Ma family.[3] It became a small town, so on December 15, 1912, the governor of Heilongjiang province ordered that the city council meet at Majiachuankou (马家船口市政局) which belonged to Hulan county.

The next year, it changed its name to Songbei city council (松北市政局). In 1925, it changed its name to Songpu city council (松浦市政局), and became part of Harbin special city in 1933. It became Songpu District in 1938.[7]

In 1953, Songpu District had two townships (Songpu 松浦, Xinxing 新兴) and two subdistricts (Tangchang 糖厂, Chuankou 船口).[8][6] In 1958, Songpu District was momentarily merged into Binjiang District, but Binjiang District was cancelled.[9] Songpu township was then place in Daowai District. Songpu became a people's commune.

In 1979, Daowai restored all the subdistricts, and set more two subdistricts (Zhenjiang 振江, Chuankou 船口). In 1983, Songpu again became a township. In 1985, Songpu became a town[3] and Chuankou Subdistrict was merged into Songpu Town.[9][10]

In 2004, Songpu belonged to Songbei District. In November, the Harbin government approved Songpu as a subdistrict.[3][2]

In 2017, Chuankou Subdistrict became independent from Songpu. Chuankou took two communities (Chuankou 船口, Guangxin Newtown 广信新城) and three villages (Taiyangsheng 太阳升, Dongming 东明, Dengta 灯塔) from Songpu.

Sub-divide

Songpu has 5 communities and 6 villages.[11] The communities are Tangchang (糖厂), Changshengyuan (常盛源), Beianqicheng (北岸启程), Beianxinghecheng (北岸兴和城), Fulicheng (富力城). The villages are Songpu (松浦), Songhuajiang (松花江), Dongfanghong (东方红), Hongxing (红星), Xinhua (新华) and Liming (黎明).
