The redevelopment project for the Mia 2 District Redevelopment Promotion Zone (Mia 2 District) in Seoul, which had been stalled for a long time since being designated as a redevelopment zone in 2010, is now gaining momentum. With an increase in the floor area ratio, the project's profitability will be improved, and more than 4,000 housing units, including buildings up to 45 stories high, are expected to be supplied.

On the 28th, the Seoul Metropolitan Government announced that the 9th Urban Redevelopment Committee had approved, with amendments, the 'Mia 2 District Redevelopment Promotion Plan Amendment and Landscape Review (Draft)'.

The Mia 2 District is the largest area within Mia New Town, a major redevelopment zone in Gangbuk. It is located in the station areas of Mia Sageori Station and Samyang Sageori Station. Although it was designated as a redevelopment zone in 2010, the project had been stalled for an extended period due to reasons such as failing to obtain project implementation approval.

However, in July, the city designated the Mia 2 District as the first site for Regulation Abolishment Plan No. 36 (relaxation of floor area ratio, public contributions, and residential ratio for redevelopment promotion projects), putting the project on track. Regulation Abolishment Plan No. 36 includes measures to significantly improve the standard floor area ratio for the first time in 20 years, raising it from 20% to up to 30%, and expanding the legal maximum floor area ratio from the previous 1.0 times to 1.2 times.

As a result of this decision, the Mia 2 District, which is subject to Regulation Abolishment Plan No. 36, saw its floor area ratio increase from 260% to 310% due to an upgrade in land use zoning. The plan for apartment complexes was also expanded from 3,519 to 4,003 units, with buildings up to 45 stories high. The plan also includes 709 rental housing units, such as Mirinae Jip.

Additionally, among the facilities to be donated to the city, the social welfare facility and the local community center were integrated into a single complex. Plans for the Seoul Citizens' College were also included to strengthen the area's role as a cultural hub.

Choi Jinseok, Director of Housing at the Seoul Metropolitan Government, stated, "We will spare no administrative support to provide a more pleasant residential environment and ensure the prompt supply of high-quality housing to residents of the Mia Redevelopment Promotion District, including the Mia 2 District, where old housing is concentrated."
