Incheon Selects Six Leading Districts for Old Planned City Redevelopment, Including Guwol District... Supplying 16,000 Homes

Incheon Metropolitan City has announced five leading districts to spearhead the redevelopment projects for aging planned cities in large-scale housing sites built within the city between the 1980s and 1990s.

The newly finalized leading districts comprise a total of 6 zones and 16,267 housing units. These include 2,756 units in Zone B1 of the Guwol District; a combined 5,605 units consisting of 4,748 units in Zone A7 and 857 units in Zone A12 of the Yeonsu and Seonhak districts; 1,530 units in Zone A4 of the Mansu 1, 2, and 3 districts; 2,958 units in Zone A3 of the Galsan, Bupyeong, and Bugae districts; and 3,418 units in Zone A5 of the Gyesan District.

Under the Special Act on the Maintenance and Support of Aging Planned Cities implemented in 2024, five large-scale housing sites spanning 1 million square meters or more and aged 20 years or older became eligible for special maintenance in Incheon.

Being selected as a leading district allows for the preferential establishment of a special maintenance plan, enabling the projects to be pursued more swiftly.

To ensure the smooth execution of the redevelopment projects, the city plans to dispatch master planners once resident representative groups are formed for each zone.

The master planners will maintain close communication with residents, providing customized consulting and administrative support for the establishment of special maintenance plans, which are a core stage of the projects.

For areas not selected as leading districts this time, the city plans to formulate selection methods and quotas for redevelopment project sites starting next year through resident briefing sessions and consultations with related organizations.
