History
The subdistrict of Juzizhou was originally called Shuiluzhou Subdistrict (). It was designated as Yuelu District in the early 1950s. In 1953, the Minzhu Jianzheng Subdistrict () was transferred from Yuelu District to the West District (). in March 1960, the Xianfeng People's Commune () was established in the West District and the Shuiluzhou Office () was named to the sixth branch () of Xianfeng People's Commune. In September 1961, the urban people's commune was revoked and the name of Shuiluzhou Office was restored. In 1968, the isle of Shuilu (Shuilu Zhou) was renamed to Orange Isle (Juzi Zhou), and the subdistrict of Juzizhou was established in the Orange Isle. In 1972, the subdistrict was transferred to Yuelu District from the West District. In 1975, the districts of Yuelu and West were amalgamated to form West District, which was under the jurisdiction of the West District.
Adjusting districts in July 1996, the West District () was abolished, it was replaced by Yuelu District, the subdistrict was under the jurisdiction of Yuelu District. At the beginning of its establishment, the subdistrict's office was located at No.10, Juzhou Xincun Village (north of the Juzizhou Bridge), and it was co-located with the police station. When the Juzizhou Bridge () was built in 1970, its office of the district was demolished. In 1972, its office was moved to No.88, Juzhou Zhongcun Village (), south of the branch bridge (borrowed from the Catholic Church). In September 1993, its office was moved from the Orange Isle to No.99 Xinmin Road () on the west bank of Xiang River. The office building was started in 1992 and covered an area of 1.5 mu (10 hm2) with a building area of 1,497 square metres (16,110 sq ft). In 2001, Yuelu Fishery Farm () was merged into the subdistrict. In February 2002, its office was moved from Xinmin Road to the office building of Yuelu Fishery Farm. In 2008, its office was moved to the Fubuhe Road (), and the new office building has a construction area of 6,000 square metres (65,000 sq ft).[citation needed]
