This project will connect a total of nine zones in the Dorim-dong and Singil-dong areas, centered around Yeongdeungpo Station, to create a single, expansive residential district. It is unusual for housing of this scale to be supplied all at once in central Seoul.

The project's core site is around 618-195 Yeongdeungpo-dong, which was recently designated as an urban public housing complex district. On a site of approximately 100,000 square meters, a landmark complex consisting of up to 48 floors and 3,366 units will be constructed. This area, with 86.3% of its homes classified as old low-rise residences, is considered the symbolic centerpiece of the redevelopment initiative.

In the Dorim-dong region, the Dorim 1 District (2,500 units) and Dorim 133-1 District (1,800 units) will each be redeveloped into complexes with up to 45 floors. In the Singil-dong region, the Singil 2 District (2,550 units) and Singil 15 District (2,600 units) are expected to lead the area's skyline with buildings reaching up to 49 floors.

Additionally, the Singil 1 District (1,483 units) and Singil 2 District (1,332 units) are in the contractor selection stage, Singil 4 District (1,273 units) is in the planned district designation stage, and Singil 16-2 District (937 units) is in the stage of drafting the redevelopment plan. These projects will proceed sequentially.

Transportation conditions further enhance the value of this area. In addition to Line 1's Yeongdeungpo Station and Line 7's Sinpung Station, the planned opening of the Shinansan Line will make the southwestern Yeongdeungpo region a core residential area, fully equipped with housing, lifestyle, and transportation infrastructure.

Choi Hokwon, Mayor of Yeongdeungpo District, stated, "The transformation of the area south of Yeongdeungpo Station marks a process in which the outdated urban image is shed and the area is reborn as a premier residential district symbolizing Seoul's future. We will focus all administrative efforts to ensure the smooth progress of this large-scale redevelopment project with 18,000 units."
