On April 22, Incheon City announced that it has created a public parking lot with 379 spaces in the Namdong National Industrial Complex, which has been struggling with parking shortages.


This project was carried out as part of a regeneration initiative to improve the aging infrastructure of Namdong Industrial Complex, which was completed over 20 years ago, and to enhance the competitiveness of the industrial complex.


The parking lot was built on the Namdong Neighborhood Park site (445 Nonhyeon-dong), with two underground levels and one above-ground level, covering a total floor area of 11,694 square meters. It consists of 22 above-ground spaces and 357 underground spaces, and is equipped with 17 electric vehicle charging stations. The upper part of the parking lot features landscaping facilities, 6,210 planted trees, and a public restroom, thereby improving the park environment and enhancing convenience and relaxation for citizens.

With a total project cost of 25 billion won, this initiative increased the number of parking spaces from the previous 261 to a total of 640, improving the parking supply rate from 33.3% to 81.6%. It is also expected to have a positive effect on revitalizing the nearby commercial area. In particular, the city expects high utilization of the parking lot due to its excellent accessibility, as it is located near Namdong-daero and the Suin Line railway.


The city plans to transfer the facility to Incheon Facilities Corporation, which will manage the parking lot, and officially begin operations in August.



An official from Incheon City stated, "This project is a core infrastructure for the regeneration of Namdong Industrial Complex, and it is significant in that it has created a space for both workers and citizens as well as improved the parking environment." The official added, "We will continue to push forward with industrial complex regeneration projects to improve working conditions and strengthen industrial competitiveness."
