Yeongdeungpo-gu (District Mayor Choi Ho-kwon) announced that it is accelerating the final preparations by visiting the site with residents before completion ahead of the opening of the Singil Cultural and Sports Library at the end of May to gather opinions.

Located at 4946 Singil-dong, the Singil Cultural and Sports Library is a complex cultural space combining a library and sports facilities, with a total floor area of 7,471㎡ (approximately 2,260 pyeong) and consisting of two basement levels and five above-ground floors.

The library is situated on the 3rd to 5th floors and is designed to allow age-specific customized reading activities and program participation. ▲The 3rd floor houses the children's and infant reading rooms ▲The 4th floor contains the general reading room ▲The 5th floor includes a multipurpose program room and study zone, providing learning spaces for students, job seekers, office workers, and anyone else.

Additionally, a resident communication space, a book caf?, is created on the 1st floor to enhance user convenience.

The sports facilities are located on the 2nd basement floor and the 1st floor. ▲The 2nd basement floor features a 25m swimming pool with 5 lanes ▲The 1st floor has a multipurpose gymnasium with an open ceiling, offering various programs such as basketball, table tennis, and toddler soccer.

In particular, since 2020, survival swimming education has been mandatory in elementary schools, but Yeongdeungpo-gu lacked public swimming pools, causing students to receive survival swimming education in nearby autonomous districts, which was inconvenient. Now, an environment has been established where survival swimming education can be conveniently and safely received within Yeongdeungpo-gu. Going forward, public swimming pool infrastructure will be continuously expanded with facilities such as ▲Daerim 3 Yusuji Comprehensive Sports Facility ▲Yangpyeong-dong Public Complex Facility ▲Singil 5 District School Complex Facility ▲Mullae Arts Center ▲Yeouido Daegyo Apartment Public Sports Facility.

Choi Ho-kwon, Mayor of Yeongdeungpo-gu, stated, “We will create convenient and safe facilities to become a center of living culture in the local community,” and added, “We will continue to expand public swimming pool infrastructure to strengthen the environment for survival swimming education.”
