[Asia Economy Reporter Hwang Seoyul] A redevelopment plan to create a parking lot in Sewoon District 6-3-4 and install connecting decks in this district and districts 3-4 and 5 has been approved.

On the 16th, Seoul City announced that it held the '8th Urban Redevelopment Committee' the previous day and approved a revised amendment to the Sewoon Redevelopment Promotion District (3-4·5, 6-3-4 districts) redevelopment promotion plan.

The amendment includes changing the land use of district 6-3-4, which was previously a research facility, to a parking lot. Through this amendment, district 6-3-4 will utilize some underground and aboveground areas as a parking lot, and an industrial anchor facility will be installed aboveground.

A pedestrian-only connecting deck road will also be constructed between district 6-3-4 and districts 3-4 and 5. This will connect the pedestrian deck on the west side of Cheonggye Shopping Center in districts 3-4 and 5 with the connecting deck, and the pedestrian deck on the east side of Hotel PJ in district 6-3-4.

Reflecting the amendment to the redevelopment promotion plan, the district plans to complete the approval of the project implementation plan and management disposition plan changes by December this year and complete construction between January and February next year.

The city is currently establishing an integrated redevelopment plan for 147 districts out of 171 in the Sewoon Redevelopment Promotion District that have passed their sunset period due to no development progress over a certain period. The city plans to prepare the redevelopment plan within this year and proceed with the redevelopment plan procedures from early next year.

Meanwhile, on the same day, the city also approved the original amendment to the Jeonnong-Dapsimni Redevelopment Promotion District plan. This completed the urban planning change procedures necessary for the construction of a municipal library within Jeonnong 7 Redevelopment Promotion District (around 440-9 Jeonnong-dong, Dongdaemun-gu).

As a result, the long-delayed urban planning facility site for a school was changed to a cultural facility (public library), and the building scope of the public library was defined (building coverage ratio of 60% or less, floor area ratio of 200% or less, height of 40m).
