[Asia Economy Reporter La Youngcheol] Goyang City in Gyeonggi Province is promoting the 'Gyeongui Line Project' to revive the declining Gyeongui Line axis into a vibrant area.

According to the city on the 12th, construction began in April on the Goyang Drone Anchor Center near Hwajeon Station as part of the urban regeneration project.

With a total project cost of 14 billion KRW, the center will be built with one basement floor, three above-ground floors, and a total floor area of 4,524㎡, scheduled to open in the second half of next year.

The Goyang Drone Anchor Center will accommodate not only drone manufacturers but also companies producing materials, parts, and equipment.

For drone research and development, an indoor drone flight area measuring 23.7m wide, 76m long, 16m high, and totaling 1,800㎡ will also be established.

At Goyang Daedeok Ecological Park, a 6,020㎡ 'Goyang Daedeok Drone Flight Field' is under construction and is scheduled to open in December.

The Todang Eoullim Center (856-1 Todang-dong), a community space planned to start construction this year, will be a four-story building with a total floor area of approximately 284㎡.

Additionally, efforts are underway to revitalize Neunggok Traditional Market, which has a history of over 50 years, and to build about 106 Goyang-style rental housing units for youth and immigrants in the area around 858 Todang-dong.

'Baekma Hwasarang,' filled with memories and romance of musicians and writers, was purchased in January last year, restored to its original state, and reopened from December.

'Ilsan Nonghyup Warehouse' has been remodeled into a complex cultural and artistic creation center, and the 'Ilsan Complex Community Center' will be built in front of Ilsan Station with a total area of 21,000㎡.

The plan includes a complex building integrating administrative and welfare functions and an apartment housing 132 units of Happy Housing, with construction starting at the end of this year and completion scheduled for 2023.
