Designation of Jeonnong 9th District as a Public Redevelopment Maintenance Area

Plan to supply up to 35 floors, a total of 1,159 apartment units (including 239 public rental units)

Expected to become a landmark of Cheongnyangni in connection with railway and metropolitan transportation plans

Dongdaemun-gu (District Mayor Lee Pil-hyung) announced that Jeonnong 9th District (area around 103-236 Jeonnong-dong) was officially designated as a public redevelopment project maintenance area on June 29.

Jeonnong 9th District was designated as a maintenance planned area in 2004 and formed a union establishment promotion committee in 2007, but faced difficulties in project promotion and the activity restrictions were lifted in 2014.

After the lifting of activity restrictions, new construction activities (share splitting) became rampant within the planned area, and when the restrictions were reinstated in 2019, the number of new building (villa) owners increased to about 200, who opposed the project promotion fearing cash settlement.

Subsequently, Jeonnong 9th District applied for the public redevelopment candidate site contest and was selected as a public redevelopment candidate site by Seoul City in March 2021. In July 2022, it was the first among public redevelopment candidate sites to propose a maintenance plan, passed the first urban planning committee review in 2023, and was officially designated as a maintenance area on June 29 this year.

Jeonnong 9th District covers approximately 50,000㎡ east of Cheongnyangni Station, with a maximum of 35 floors and a floor area ratio of 299.68%. A total of 1,159 households (920 for sale), including 239 public rental housing units, will be supplied.

Within the maintenance area, a neighborhood park and a public office building will be constructed. The public office building will be developed as a complex building including Jeonnong 1-dong Community Center, youth startup support, and fashion sewing support center, with commercial and cultural facilities such as a book cafe planned for the lower floors.

A Dongdaemun-gu official stated, “Jeonnong 9th District is adjacent to Cheongnyangni Station, a transportation hub where GTX-B and GTX-C lines will be introduced, and we expect it to become a landmark of the Cheongnyangni station area upon project implementation.”
