The area around 102-8 Dongjakdong in Dongjak District, Seoul, has been selected as a candidate site for the Seoul Moa Town project. Dongjak District announced on the 27th that this area passed the preliminary expert review stage of the Seoul Metropolitan Government on the 24th.

This Moa Town project is especially significant as it is the first case in Dongjak District to be selected through a resident proposal. With a resident consent rate of 77.37%, the project is expected to gain momentum. The 102-8 Dongjakdong area is a 21,211-square-meter low-rise residential zone on hilly terrain. Unlike the adjacent area where apartment complexes have been developed, this area was excluded from previous development projects, resulting in a high proportion of aging homes and a lack of social infrastructure.

The district plans to establish a Moa Town management plan to expand basic infrastructure, including improving access roads, enhancing the pedestrian environment, and creating community-oriented rest areas. A systematic redevelopment will be promoted to harmonize with the surrounding areas. In addition, the district intends to develop a distinctive architectural plan to present a new model for Moa Towns.

Dongjak District Mayor Park Ilha stated, "With the selection of this Moa Town, the Dongjakdong area will be transformed into a forest-accessible residential complex within the city," adding, "We will continue to focus all administrative efforts on rapidly transforming the map of Dongjak."
