[Asia Economy Reporter Hwang Seoyul] With the approval of the redevelopment plan for Sangbong 10 Redevelopment Promotion Zone in front of Mangu Station, which had been stagnant, an apartment complex with 498 households will be built. Among them, 116 households will be supplied as public housing.

On the 26th, Seoul City announced that it held the '7th Urban Redevelopment Committee' the day before and approved the revised amendment of the Sangbong Redevelopment Promotion District redevelopment promotion plan. However, conditions were attached that the location of infrastructure, auxiliary welfare facilities, and the entrance of apartment buildings must be reviewed during the Architectural Committee review.

Located at 50-1, Sangdong-dong, Jungnang-gu, the Sangbong 10 Redevelopment Promotion Zone is right in front of Mangu Station, where the Gyeongui-Jungang Line and Gyeongchun Line pass. Although the project had been stagnant for a long time despite the urgent need to improve the residential environment due to aging buildings and poor conditions, the project can now proceed with this decision.

Although Sangbong 10 Zone is a quasi-residential area, a total of 498 apartment households will be supplied due to the relaxed residential ratio applicable to redevelopment promotion zones. Among them, 116 public housing units will be mixed and allocated without distinction from the sale units.

In addition, a social welfare facility called the 'Hub-type Kiwoom Center,' which will serve as a hub for elementary after-school care institutions in the Jungnang area, will be established. The Kiwoom Center is a facility that elementary school students who need after-school care can use, and in particular, the 'hub-type' is operated by the city.

Yoo Changsoo, Director of the Seoul City Housing Policy Office, said, "With this amendment decision, it is expected to improve not only the housing supply around Mangu Station but also the residential conditions, landscape, and the convenience of local children through the establishment of social welfare facilities." He added, "We will continue to actively support the smooth promotion of redevelopment projects for urban environment improvement."
