A Community Sports Facility to Be Built in Gongneung 1 District, Nowon-gu

[Asia Economy Reporter Donghyun Choi] A community sports facility will be established on the reconstruction site of Gongneung 1 District in Gongneung-dong, Nowon-gu, Seoul.

Seoul City announced on the 30th that it held the 5th Urban Planning Committee meeting on the 29th and approved the amendment to the designation and maintenance plan of the Gongneung 1 Housing Reconstruction Maintenance District.

The Gongneung 1 Housing Reconstruction Maintenance District in the area of 228-1 Gongneung-dong, Nowon-gu, was designated as a maintenance district in 2005. However, considering that the area is a typical working-class residential area densely populated with apartment complexes, the land use plan was changed to build insufficient community sports facilities (public open space → public cultural and sports facilities).

During this review, Seoul City approved the amendment to the maintenance plan on the condition that the architectural plan harmonizes with nearby social welfare facilities such as daycare centers.

A Seoul City official said, "This decision is expected to improve the working-class residential environment in the Gongneung-dong area, secure public infrastructure such as roads and parks, and expand public sports facilities for residents' health."
