In Banghwa-dong, Gangseo District, as well as in Mia-dong and Suyu-dong in Gangbuk District, a total of 3,433 dwellings will be supplied in 5 areas.
On the 18th, the Seoul City government noted that it passed 5 proposals for the Moa dwellings and Moa town projects to improve aging low-rise residential areas during the 12th integrated review subcommittee on small-scale housing maintenance.
The passed proposals are ▲ Moa dwellings in the area of 247-71 Banghwa-dong, Gangseo District ▲ Moa dwellings in the area of 767-51 Mia-dong, Gangbuk District ▲ Moa town in the area of 52-1 Suyu-dong, Gangbuk District ▲ Moa town in the area of 170 Bulkwang-dong, Eunpyeong District ▲ Moa town in the area of 728-1 Mok 4-dong, Yangcheon District. The total supply scale of the 5 Moa dwelling projects is 3,433 dwellings (including 664 rented units).
The street housing maintenance project in the area of 247-71 Banghwa-dong is a project that supplies a total of 212 dwellings (including 29 rented units) in 5 buildings, from 3 underground floors to 14 stories above ground. This Moa dwelling plan secures project viability by applying ▲ relaxation of building heights in the general residential area of type 2 ▲ relaxation of the floor area ratio due to the construction of rental housing constituting 13.7% of the total number of dwellings ▲ relaxation of public open space standards within the site.
The Moa dwellings in the area of 767-51 Mia-dong, Gangbuk District, will supply 262 dwellings (including 27 rented units) in 4 buildings, ranging from 2 underground floors to 18 stories above ground. In this area, relaxation of the floor area ratio (200%→247.7%) is applied due to the construction of rental housing constituting over 10% of the total number of dwellings and zero-energy building certification, resulting in the creation of 262 units (an increase from the existing 153 units). Notably, a 2-meter pedestrian path will be created on roads where existing pedestrian and vehicle lanes have not been separated to ensure safe school routes.
The Moa town near Suyu Elementary School in the area of 52-1 Suyu-dong, Gangbuk District, will supply a total of 754 dwellings (including 134 rented units) through the promotion of 2 Moa dwelling sites. The target area has been an inadequate residential environment due to aging buildings and narrow roads, but redevelopment had been difficult. This plan aims to revitalize the area by creating a community road (Samyang-ro 74-da-gil) with consideration for Suyu Elementary School and the transportation hub.
The area of Saekdong Children's Park has been significantly expanded (from 2,341.2㎡ to 3,387.2㎡), enhancing the park's functionality. In Samyang-ro 80-gil, an open shared facility will be placed, and the walking environment will be improved to create a safe school route for students at Hwagee Elementary School.
The Moa town in the area of 170 Bulkwang-dong, Eunpyeong District, will have a total of 1,433 dwellings (including 262 rented units) through the promotion of 3 Moa dwelling sites. This designation increases the housing supply from the previous 795 dwellings by 638 dwellings.
Public pedestrian paths and community roads will be created in connection with a nearby middle school and the Bukhan Mountain circular trail, and new public spaces will be established to provide the lacking leisure areas.
The Moa town in the area of 728-1 Mok 4-dong, Yangcheon District, will supply 772 dwellings (including 212 rented units). The management plan for this Moa town expands existing narrow roads and designates building setback lines to secure safe walkways. The aging Mok 4-dong community center will be transferred, and a public parking lot will be established in the basement of the office building.
Choi Jin-seok, head of housing policy at the Seoul City government, said, "Five aging low-rise residential areas, including Suyu-dong in Gangbuk, are being rejuvenated into pleasant residential complexes through Moa town and Moa dwelling projects. We will do our best to expand housing supply and improve the quality of life for residents through the swift promotion of these projects."
