Additionally, Blocks 2 and 3 will feature 6 to 29 stories above ground, Block 4 will have 5 to 20 stories above ground, including 618 residential units with 140 public housing units, and Block 1 will have 7 to 25 stories above ground with 93 officetel units planned as office facilities.
The elevation plan incorporates metal and perforated metal panels designed to express the identity of the auto parts market, and solar panels will be installed on the exterior walls to utilize eco-friendly energy.

The association plans to apply for project implementation approval in the second half of this year, and accordingly, the district office will actively support the smooth progress of the redevelopment project.
