Development bird's-eye view

[Asia Economy Reporter Jong-il Park] Songpa-gu (Mayor Park Seong-su) is set to launch a comprehensive development plan to create a premium residential complex in the Geoyeomacheon area.

As Songpa-gu is promoting balanced development among regions as its top priority project this year, it formed a task force (TF) consisting of four subcommittees from related departments on March 10, and held a kickoff meeting for the detailed implementation plan on the 25th.

This project mainly covers ▲current status and condition analysis of the Geoyeomacheon area ▲plans for utilizing public land donated to the district ▲ecological landmark development of Seongnae Stream and parks ▲plans for building cultural and tourism infrastructure.

Additionally, it will focus on reviewing inter-project linkage and expansion, as well as prioritizing projects through selection and concentration.

To gather diverse opinions professionally and at the residents’ level, a public-private cooperation governance body (regional development council) will be formed in May, including experts in urban planning and architecture, resident representatives, members of the National Assembly, and city and district councilors.

Based on this, it is expected that professional research covering various aspects such as consideration for future generations, reflection of surrounding development conditions, and prediction of administrative demands and functions will be conducted to foster broad resident consensus.

Mayor Park Seong-su stated, “This project will focus on forming a joint living area linked with the adjacent Wirye New Town,” adding, “By presenting a future blueprint to promote balanced development across Songpa-gu, we will lay the foundation for Geoyeomacheon to leap forward as a premium residential complex.”

Meanwhile, Songpa-gu is actively responding to the redevelopment promotion project in the Geoma area and the development of nearby areas such as Wirye New Town and Hanam Gam-il District.

For strategic planning of large-scale development projects at the level of new town creation, since last September, 44 projects have been planned, and in December, a mid- to long-term basic urban development plan for the Geoma area was established. Recently, as the first step in the comprehensive development of Geoyeomacheon, it was decided to construct a new complex office building in Machon 1-dong at 603 Machon-dong.
