In this style features, the accumulation of the heavy local culture, history, culture, humanities and cultural characteristics, historical evolution is a true portrayal of the city. However, with social development, economic progress, urban construction in full swing every corner of the city spread of modern industrial production methods and modern people's way of life and the modern commercial activities, all showed some with strong historical and cultural characteristics of the atmosphere traditional street constantly being swallowed up by waves of urban construction. Instead, the overall transformation of major demolition and construction after the monotony of the modern mode of architecture, urban traditional style features gradually disappear, showing "a kind of small town big city, a kind of northern South" in the urban style, lost its style in the city personality characteristics and cultural heritage.As one of the world's four ancient capitals Xi'an, after a 13 dynasty, the changes have been classified as historical and cultural city, and today's Xi'an as the western development of core cities, but also show a side of their fashion metropolis, as a real charm of the ancient capital.

This deep structure convey a sense of history we can still be perceived, but the East Avenue street side building as a whole ancient city Xi'an street style and appearance of the physical carrier, and its status though the streets of East Avenue in accordance with the nature of its decision inherent natural law of development, but with historical and cultural cities of the ancient city of Xi'an style is quite different, so reform is imperative. This paper attempts to the overall historical and cultural city of Xi'an city style point of view, the transformation of its building frontages as the research object. In the history and current status of East Avenue building from the external morphology, retain value, use value and so on the basis of full investigation, combined with the overall historical and cultural city of Xi'an urban style, urban history, culture and human culture, from various angles the overall style of the ancient city of Xi'an to explore the integration of, and does not destroy the original fabric of the city streets and space patterns,With modern commercial activities, people's lifestyle, aesthetic, Xi'an East Avenue frontage to match the transformation of surface construction methods and practices.
