Maesan-dong "Moduda Eoullim Center" in Suwon to Be Completed on June 30

The Maesan-dong Urban Regeneration Project (Moduda Eoullim Center) in Suwon City, Gyeonggi Province, will be completed on June 30, 2025.

Maesan-dong is located at the heart of Suwon City's growth axis and serves as a key hub for transportation, economy, and commerce, with Suwon Station and the bus transfer center situated there.

However, large-scale development in the western area of Suwon Station led to a decline in the local commercial district. Additionally, issues such as aging buildings and insufficient infrastructure emerged simultaneously, continuously raising the need for urban regeneration.

This urban regeneration project was pursued with the vision of "Restoring the central functions of Suwon, a city of 1.25 million, through mutual consultation and coexistence." The project aimed to restore the functions of the central urban area by establishing community facilities for residents, improving pedestrian environments, creating youth jobs, and revitalizing unique commercial districts.

The main initiatives include: ▲ Establishment of the Maesan-dong Eoullim Center ▲ Creation of a Youth Incubation Center ▲ Revitalization of alleyway commercial districts ▲ Construction of the Moduda Eoullim Center ▲ Implementation of a participatory platform project to promote alleyway culture ▲ Improvement of street environments around Suwon Station ▲ Creation of the Maesan-dong Eoullim Street.

Gyeonggi Province expects that the Maesan-dong urban regeneration project will strengthen public functions by creating community spaces for residents and urban regeneration hubs for youth entrepreneurship education, as well as improving the pedestrian environment in the target area's station market, Maesan Market, and themed streets. The local commercial district is also anticipated to regain its vitality.

Kim Tae-su, Director of Urban Regeneration at Gyeonggi Province, stated, "The Maesan-dong urban regeneration project has yielded meaningful results through the participation and cooperation of residents," adding, "Gyeonggi Province will continue to manage this project to ensure that it leads to long-term changes in the region, rather than being limited to temporary achievements."
