Special Residence Category - POSCO Construction

[Asia Economy Reporter Ryu Taemin] ‘The Sharp’ by POSCO Engineering & Construction, which won the grand prize in the Special Residence category, embodies the brand philosophy of “enhancing pride in the place where you live” by providing residential spaces that elevate the value of life. Based on solidity and durability, The Sharp aims to lead a premium residential culture one step above the essential foundation of housing. The Sharp’s logo is also inspired by the strength of tall buildings, featuring intersecting horizontal and vertical strokes. Using a deep Prussian blue color symbolizing POSCO’s steel, it visualizes the brand’s sophistication and robust image.

This distinctive design and trend of The Sharp is fully reflected in ‘Jije Station The Sharp Central City.’ Located in the Jije Segyo district of Pyeongtaek-si, Gyeonggi-do (around 595 Jije-dong), Jije Station The Sharp Central City is a large complex consisting of 19 buildings with up to 27 floors above ground and a total of 1,999 households. By exclusive area, it comprises ▲64㎡ with 523 units ▲84㎡ with 1,164 units ▲115㎡ with 312 units, mainly small to medium-sized units preferred by actual buyers.

‘Jije Station The Sharp Central City’ features specialized designs such as 4 to 4.5 bay layouts favorable for ventilation, ‘ㄷ’-shaped kitchens, dressing rooms, alpha rooms, and pantries. Community facilities including a fitness center, golf practice range, library, senior citizens’ center, daycare, and sauna will be established to enhance residential convenience.

Within the landscaping area, 11 facilities will be installed, including a children’s water play area, The Sharp Permata, a palm garden, and themed walking trails. The themed walking trail, stretching 1.5 km, will connect the entire complex and be developed as a park-style promenade.

Transportation is also convenient. It is a super-station area within 500 meters of Pyeongtaek Jije Station on Subway Line 1, and access to the Gyeongbu Expressway is easy via National Routes 1 and 45. The Pyeongtaek-Osong double-track railway (exempt from preliminary feasibility study) is also planned, and with the opening of the KTX from Suwon in 2021 and the establishment of a complex transfer center at Jije Station, transportation conditions are expected to improve further.

As a ‘Chopuma’ complex, it also boasts excellent educational conditions. An elementary school and a high school are planned within walking distance of the complex, and safe commuting is possible without crossing roads via connecting passages. The Sosa-beol district academy area is also nearby. Once the development of the adjacent Jije Segyo district is completed, the central commercial area of Jije Station will be right in front, making the living area convenient. Within 5 km are the Pyeongtaek City Hall, Suwon District Court Pyeongtaek Branch, and Pyeongtaek Education Support Office, forming a central administrative town.
