A Moa Town with 2,387 housing units will be established in the Deungchon 2-dong area of Gangseo-gu, Seoul.


The district announced that two sites, Deungchon-dong 515-44 and 520-3, have passed the Moa Town management plan review by the Seoul Urban Regeneration Committee.


Moa Town is a district-level redevelopment method that groups together aging low-rise residential areas under 100,000㎡, where new and old buildings coexist making large-scale redevelopment difficult, to provide quality housing and various convenience facilities.


The Deungchon 2-dong area that passed the review this time is an aging residential area adjacent to Bongje Mountain, characterized by narrow roads, insufficient parking spaces, and poor living environments such as lack of community rest areas. However, redevelopment has not been possible as the conditions for redevelopment were not met.


In particular, with schools and libraries nearby, redevelopment was necessary to ensure the pedestrian safety of children and students.


The management plan includes ▲ zoning upgrades ▲ expansion of school routes to create a safe pedestrian environment ▲ widening existing roads from 4-6m to 8-10m ▲ creation of open community facilities ▲ and architectural agreements allowing multiple sites to be developed as a single complex.


Through this management plan, the district plans to implement six Moa housing projects in the area by 2027, supplying a total of 2,387 apartment units.


The area is expected to feature Moa housing harmoniously arranged with linear street activation facilities and mid- to high-rise buildings, fitting the local characteristics and natural scenery.



Park Dae-woo, Acting Mayor of Gangseo-gu, said, “The wishes of Deungchon 2-dong residents hoping for residential environment improvements have finally borne fruit,” and added, “We will spare no support to ensure the smooth progress of the Moa housing projects after the management plan is announced.”
