Gangbuk-gu '50 Plus Center' Groundbreaking Ceremony
Complex Facility Preparing for Life's Second Half Scheduled to Open in July Next Year... Basement 1, 4 Floors Above Ground... Startup Incubation, Open Shared Spaces, Lecture Rooms, and More to Be Established
[Asia Economy Reporter Jongil Park] Gangbuk-gu (Mayor Park Kyum-soo) has broken ground for the 'Gangbuk 50 Plus Center,' aiming to open it in July next year.
The 50 Plus Center is a district-run complex facility that supports the successful second half of life for middle-aged and senior generations. It provides life redesign education and community service activities. To prepare for the later stages of life, career development, employment, and entrepreneurship preparation can also be done here.
The center is planned to be built with one basement floor and four above-ground floors, covering a total floor area of 1,002㎡. The basement floor will house a startup incubation space. The first and second floors above ground will include open shared rooms, lecture rooms, a caf?, and a computer room, while the third and fourth floors will be arranged with club rooms, multipurpose rooms, and counseling rooms.
The center is located within the Mia 3-111 Housing Reconstruction Maintenance Project area. It was established as a donation facility from the reconstruction maintenance project. Although the district set the construction policy in 2018, the project was delayed due to changes in the reconstruction plan. Last year, the construction push gained momentum starting with a design advisory meeting involving experts.
The site has excellent accessibility for residents, being near Mia Sageori Station on Line 4 and Buk Seoul Dream Forest. Approximately 3,000 apartment households are densely located nearby, ensuring ample demand for the facility.
