Songnae 4 Public Parking Lot in Dongducheon to Undergo Complex Development... 210 Housing Units to Be Supplied

The conditional approval has been granted for the change of use of the Songnae 4 Public Parking Lot site in Dongducheon, Gyeonggi Province.

Gyeonggi Province announced on November 18 that it has conditionally approved the proposal to amend the urban management plan (zoning) for the 'Jihaeng Station Integrated Public Rental Housing Complex Development Project' submitted by Dongducheon City.

This amendment to the urban management plan involves changing the zoning of the Songnae 4 Public Parking Lot site (2,409.9 square meters) from a Type 2 General Residential Area to a General Commercial Area. On this site, a complex development is planned that will combine 210 units of integrated public rental housing for young people, including newlyweds, with a family center providing care and family services.

The project gained momentum after Dongducheon City and Gyeonggi Housing and Urban Development Corporation signed a memorandum of understanding (MOU) in August last year, and it was selected in August this year for the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure and Transport's '2025 Specialized Public Rental Housing Contest Project.'

To address the parking demand at Jihaeng Station and the surrounding commercial areas, the construction of a parking-only building (eight above-ground floors, 528 parking spaces) on the adjacent Songnae 1 Public Parking Lot site was selected in September last year as a Gyeonggi Province balanced regional development project. The project will proceed through a design competition, basic design, and detailed design in 2026.

Kim Heeseong, Director of Urban Policy at Gyeonggi Province, stated, "This project is expected to provide a foundation for young people to settle and live in Dongducheon City. Through this, we anticipate it will help prevent the outflow of young people from areas at risk of population decline and have a positive effect on attracting new residents from outside."
