Yongsan-gu Wonhyoro 4-ga Moa Town Management Plan Service

Wonhyoro 4-ga 71 Area Selected as ‘Moatown’ Target Site in October Last Year

Category 2 General Residential Area (Up to 7 Floors), Approximately 24,962㎡ in Size

Management Plan Establishment Service to Begin in July, Seoul City Approval Targeted in 2024

Yongsan-gu (District Mayor Park Hee-young) is promoting a management plan establishment service for the Wonhyoro 4-ga 71 area, which was selected as a Moatown (small-scale housing maintenance management area) target site last year.

The Wonhyoro 4-ga 71 area is located near Hangang Citizen Park and is classified as a Category 2 General Residential Area (up to 7 floors), with a district size of approximately 24,962㎡.

The district plans to start the management plan establishment service in July and proceed with it promptly. Afterward, the established management plan will undergo procedures such as collecting residents' opinions and integrated review by Seoul City, aiming for approval of the management plan in 2024.

Through this service, sector-specific plans will be developed, including land use plans, maintenance infrastructure and shared facility installation plans, and building utilization plans. Additionally, specific measures will be prepared to implement the Moatown management plan and related administrative procedures.

The Wonhyoro 4-ga Moatown target site is an area densely populated with aging low-rise houses, with narrow road widths and poor maintenance infrastructure, leading to strong resident demands for housing maintenance projects.

Accordingly, Seoul City selected this area as a Moatown target site in October last year.

Park Hee-young, Mayor of Yongsan-gu, stated, “We will actively improve the poor residential environment of the aging low-rise residential area in Wonhyoro 4-ga 71.” He added, “We will support the project to be completed swiftly in cooperation with Seoul City and related organizations in line with the purpose of Moatown.”

‘Moatown,’ meaning a small-scale housing maintenance management area, is a district-level maintenance method that groups aging low-rise residential areas within 100,000㎡ where new and old buildings coexist and large-scale redevelopment is difficult, to systematically improve and expand quality housing and various convenience facilities through organized maintenance.
