Urban land intensive use (ULIU) is the breakthrough to economic growth quality (TFP). This paper, based on China's 30 provinces' information, discusses the influence of ULIU on TFP, in consideration of temporal lagging effect, uses spatial econometric model to measure the affection and influence of ULIU on TFP. ULIU can influence TFP from micro-, medium- and macroscopic mechanism. TFP rises across eastern, central to western provinces during 2003 to 2015. ULIU drives TFP, with its influence diminishing and rising across the whole country, also varying with locations, generally descending toward western provinces. This paper presents suggestions on industries-to-economic servicing, innovating public services and boosting regional spatial connection so as to promote the effective integration of ULIU and TFP.
