Knowledge Industry Center 'Gasan Urban Walk' to Launch Sales Next Month..."Excellent Proximity to Work"
Improved Regional Accessibility Expected with Seobu Ganseon Road and Sinansan Line
Comfortable Work Environment Provided with Twin Towers Overlooking Anyangcheon
[Asia Economy Reporter Onyu Lim] The developer DS Networks announced on the 15th that it will launch pre-sale next month for the knowledge industry center "Gasan Urban Walk," to be built on the Yangjisa site at 451-1 and 452-1 Gasan-dong, Geumcheon-gu, Seoul. The construction company is Daewoo E&C.
Gasan Urban Walk is a knowledge industry center consisting of two buildings from basement level 5 to ground level 20. Building I has 503 office units with a total exclusive area of 37,286㎡, and Building II has 304 units totaling 24,957㎡. In addition, there are 112 neighborhood living facilities and 162 office support facilities.
This complex has attracted attention even before pre-sale as a rare new knowledge industry center within the Gasan Digital Complex station area. It is located within a 5-minute walk from Gasan Digital Complex Station, a transfer station for Lines 1 and 7, providing convenient commuting conditions for office workers. Accordingly, many companies considering proximity between workplace and residence are expected to demand this due to the pleasant working environment.
Major transportation options and road networks are well established, making it convenient to move around the surrounding areas. Not only is public transportation via Gasan Digital Complex Station convenient, but the site is also near Gangnam Circular Road, Western Arterial Road, Southern Circular Road, and Siheung-daero, facilitating easy vehicle movement.
Furthermore, with the completion of the Western Arterial Road underground project scheduled for 2021 and the Shinansan Line connecting Ansan and downtown Seoul expected to open in 2024, the transportation network around the site is anticipated to become even smoother.
The Seoul Gasan Digital Complex is the area with the highest concentration of knowledge industry centers in Seoul, accounting for 49% of the nationwide commercial and office real estate transaction volume, making it a central hub for knowledge industry centers. The pre-sale price has also risen by more than 10% annually on average over the past five years, steadily growing as a national representative industrial complex.
A sales official stated, "The aging of Gasan Digital Complex 1 and 2 has been prolonged," adding, "About 74% of the knowledge industry centers were completed before 2010 and have been aged for more than 10 years, so there will likely be high relocation demand for new knowledge industry centers."
Tax reduction benefits for industrial cluster infrastructure for small and medium-sized venture companies are also positively affecting the pre-sale of knowledge industry centers. Companies moving into knowledge industry centers can receive a 50% reduction in acquisition tax and a 37.5% reduction in property tax.
Gasan Urban Walk is designed as twin towers with views of the Anyangcheon Stream. With the Western Arterial Road underground project, Anyangcheon is expected to function as a resting place for digital complex workers, and the advantage of a pleasant view of Anyangcheon is also provided.
This knowledge industry center, built with a twin tower specialized design including a central plaza, offers seminar rooms and conference rooms for work convenience, shared warehouses, as well as fitness rooms, showers, and locker rooms to help workers maintain their physical health. A rest park will be established in the central plaza.
