[Asia Economy Reporter Park Jong-il] Dongjak-gu (Mayor Lee Chang-woo) will complete the construction of the second generation-integrated senior center and happy housing complex building this month in the area of Sangdo 4-dong 211-438.

This project is being promoted as a measure to supply youth housing through the complexification of public facilities. It utilizes the site of the district-run Yaksu Senior Center, which is over 30 years old, by reconstructing the senior center and creating public housing using the surplus floor area ratio.

The district signed an agreement in 2018 for the 'Dongjak-gu-Seoul REITs (No. 2) Senior Center Happy Housing Complex Project' and began full-scale project promotion.

Through the agreement, in February this year, the district built the 'Sadang 3-dong District-run Haksu Senior Center Happy Housing Complex Building,' the first in Seoul's autonomous districts to combine a senior center and youth housing. The Yaksu Senior Center Happy Housing Complex Building is the second achievement.

The complex building consists of two buildings with a total floor area of 1,121㎡, including the district-run Yaksu Senior Center, 25 units of happy housing, and a parking lot (4 spaces).

In particular, a courtyard was created inside the Yaksu Senior Center to allow natural light to enter, providing a resting space where the elderly can feel the changes of the seasons even in the harsh urban life.

Additionally, it is located about a 5-minute walk from Sangdo Station on Subway Line 7, making it highly accessible as a station area.

Residents were selected through screening after the recruitment announcement by Seoul REITs (No. 2) at the end of August, with 19 university student households and 6 youth households chosen, prioritizing residents of Dongjak-gu and university students located in Dongjak-gu.

Meanwhile, Dongjak-gu has been promoting 'Dongjak-gu-type public housing supply' as a key district project since the 6th local government term, attempting housing supply at the autonomous district level to realize universal housing welfare.

Lee Deung-ho, Head of the Housing Division, said, “The district is leading public housing supply models such as Seoul-type autonomous housing maintenance projects and public facility complexification, and will continue to discover new models to do its best in supplying customized rental housing centered on demand.”
