After the founding of new China, the residence was owned by Zigong Municipal People's government. In 1955, according to the proposal of the people's representatives, the municipal government named the "Zhangjia garden" where Zhang Boqing's residence is located as Gongjing people's Park for the masses to visit. During the "Cultural Revolution", Zhang Boqing's residence was changed into an office. After the "Cultural Revolution", it was repaired and reopened to tourists in 1978.
