[Asia Economy Reporter Yuri Kim] The 'Banghwa-dong Cheongsinho Housing and Community Center Construction Project,' which develops city-owned land that was previously used as the site of Seongji Middle and High School but had been left vacant, to build happy housing and a community center for young adults and newlyweds, will be actively promoted starting January.

On April 9th, Seoul City approved the urban management plan and housing construction project plan for the 'Banghwa-dong Cheongsinho Housing and Community Center Construction Project,' finalized the project plan, selected the construction company in September, and after removing obstacles on the site and coordinating with the subway from October to December, full-scale construction began in January 2021.

Seoul City and Seoul Housing & Communities Corporation (SH Corporation) previously held the 'Banghwa-dong Cheongsinho Housing and Community Center Design Competition' to prepare a creative design plan and selected the winning entry. Cheongsinho, scheduled for occupancy in the second half of 2022, plans to supply a total of 315 units for young adults and newlyweds, including 109 units of 29㎡ (exclusive area) and 206 units of 44㎡.

Banghwa-dong Cheongsinho Housing is adjacent to Gaehwasan Station on Subway Line 5. It has a total floor area of 25,839㎡ and consists of one basement floor and 15 above-ground floors. Auxiliary welfare facilities such as a small library, senior citizens' center, daycare center, and community exercise facilities will also be established. The Banghwa 2-dong Community Center has a total floor area of 2,015㎡, with one basement floor and five above-ground floors, and is scheduled for completion in the second half of 2021 before being donated to Gangseo-gu. The units apply SH Corporation's specialized Cheongsinho floor plans. The 'One-step Storage' located at the unit entrance for storing carriers, parcels, strollers, etc., is also applied.

Kim Seong-bo, Head of the Housing and Architecture Headquarters at Seoul City, said, "By utilizing the previously neglected city-owned land to supply Cheongsinho housing for young adults and newlyweds, we expect to contribute to housing stability and improvement of living standards for young people," adding, "We will continue to do our best to actively supply quality housing by utilizing idle sites in the city center or old public office sites."
