The Sinbanpo 4th Reconstruction Association approved the agenda to select Samsung C&T as the contractor at the general meeting held on the 29th. The Sinbanpo 4th reconstruction project covers a site of 92,922㎡ at 70 Jamwon-dong, Seocho-gu, and involves constructing a total of 7 buildings ranging from 3 basement floors to 48 above-ground floors, comprising 1,828 households and auxiliary facilities. The construction cost is approximately 1.031 trillion KRW.

Sinbanpo 4th reconstruction is located within 100 meters walking distance from the Express Bus Terminal Station, a transfer station for subway lines 3, 7, and 9. It is a prime location in Banpo, equipped with excellent educational facilities such as Banwon Elementary School, Kyungwon Middle School, and the planned Cheongdam High School, as well as diverse living infrastructures including Shinsegae Department Store, NewCore, and Seoul St. Mary’s Hospital.

Samsung C&T proposed the new complex name 'Raemian Heriven Banpo,' combining Heritage, River, and the number Seven to embody the Han River premium and the concept of enjoying a seven-star lifestyle in seven main buildings, symbolizing excellence.

Samsung C&T collaborated with the American architectural design group SMDP, who worked on the Raemian One Bailey design, as well as world-renowned designers such as Ron Arad and Nicola Galizia, to prepare an innovative proposal applying the titles of Banpo’s best, largest, and first.

The skybridge, constructed at a height of 170 meters, offers a 360-degree view of the cityscape and the Han River. It will feature a sky gym, sky golf, an outdoor pool, and a guest house, along with two exclusive elevators for residents.

A large lake spanning 3,305㎡ will be created in the central plaza of the complex, producing a unique artistic landscape with an original atrium (an open ceiling space designed as an art piece). Beneath the central plaza, Banpo’s first ultra-large complex cultural facility spanning three floors and 20 meters in height will be established. The total space of 15,727㎡ will include community facilities such as a green golf club, indoor tennis courts, a swimming pool, and a lounge restaurant.

Sinbanpo 4th will feature Banpo’s largest penthouse (99 pyeong / 239㎡). It is designed with private terraces of 100 pyeong and bathrooms in every room. Specialized designs include a ceiling height of 3.5 meters to maximize openness and a unit separation function.

Samsung C&T leveraged the location advantage adjacent to the Han River to propose a total of 1,320 households with Han River views, allowing all association members to enjoy the river scenery. This is about twice the number of units with Han River views originally planned by the association (671 households).

Each of the seven buildings will have hotel-style entrances, duplex lobbies, private communities, and a total of 12 exclusive amenities. Residents will be able to enjoy convenience and services comparable to those of a seven-star hotel.

Kim Myung-seok, Vice President and Head of Samsung C&T’s Housing Business Division, said, "We have poured the essence of the Raemian reputation built in the Banpo area into the Sinbanpo 4th reconstruction project. We will faithfully fulfill the highest value and best business conditions proposed to the association and create a new landmark in the Banpo area."
