This parking tower, built at 724-1 Songdong near the park to alleviate parking inconveniences for visitors and nearby residents, features two underground and four above-ground floors, with a total floor area of 3,511 square meters and 321 parking spaces.

In particular, the building adopts an open structure and a nature-friendly exterior, moving away from the dark and closed image of conventional parking buildings and ensuring it does not obstruct the park's landscape. The lower part of the building has been created as an open plaza, which can be used for various purposes such as performances, busking, and relaxation.


Since July, the city has been operating the parking lot temporarily and free of charge, but starting from October 20, it will switch to a paid system.


The city expects that the completion of the parking tower will not only resolve illegal parking issues around the park but also help revitalize the local commercial district.



Mayor Jeong stated, "This parking tower was created not only to address parking shortages but also as an open space where citizens can enjoy culture and leisure together," adding, "We will continue to do our best to create open spaces that enhance the value of the city, going beyond basic living infrastructure."
