A residential complex with a maximum of 36 floors and 1,750 units will be developed in the Jangandong area of Dongdaemun District, Seoul. The city of Seoul announced on the 2nd that it has finalized the 'rapid integrated plan for the Jangandong 134-15 area.'
The area is close to Baebongsan to the west and Jungnangcheon and Yongmasan to the east. It is evaluated as having excellent locational conditions and potential due to the upcoming opening of the Gyeongjeoncheol Myeonmok Line to the north. However, it has been stagnant without significant changes in the living conditions compared to nearby Cheongnyangni, Jeonnong-Dapshimni, and Imun-Hwigyeong.
The city of Seoul has introduced a 'circular greenway' connecting underutilized parks near the site and a street linking Hancheon-ro and Jungnangcheon. This plan aims to establish an organic pedestrian green space system that can lead to parks from anywhere in the complex and allow greenery to naturally spread to surrounding areas.
Additionally, plans for higher land use and a skyline reaching 36 floors have secured an open visual axis from Dapshimni Park to Jangiso Park and Yongmasan. Major street fronts such as Dapshimni-ro and Hancheon-ro 36-gil are planned to be mid-rise, creating a harmonious urban landscape with the surroundings.
On Dapshimni-ro 65-gil, which is a street with access to the subway station, community facilities such as a care center and a senior center, available for local residents, have been placed.
With the confirmation of the 'redevelopment plan for the Jangandong 134-15 area,' rapid integrated planning for 121 out of a total of 202 sites in downtown Seoul has been completed.
Jo Nam-jun, head of the Urban Space Headquarters of the Seoul Metropolitan Government, said, 'This plan will be the starting point for the development of the Jangandong area,' and noted, 'We will continue to provide active support to meet citizens' expectations for development in the local area.'
