Xiaobailou Subdistrict (simplified Chinese: 小白楼街道; traditional Chinese: 小白樓街道; pinyin: Xiǎobáilóu Jiēdào) is a subdistrict of Heping District, Tianjin. it borders Guangfudao Subdistrict in the north, Dawangzhuang Subdistrict in the east, Dayingmen and Wudadao Subdistrict in the south, and Quanyechang Subdistrict in the west. It was once part of the American concession of Tianjin. As of 2010, its population was 30,982.
The name Xiaobailou (Chinese: 小白楼; lit. 'Small White Building') originated back when this region was a foreign concession. Since the area did not have an official name yet, it was named after a two-story pub that was a local landmark.
