The Shinlim 6 District in Gwanak-gu, Seoul, has been designated as a redevelopment area, marking the official start of a project to create a housing complex with 957 units.
On June 4, Gwanak-gu announced that the redevelopment plan for the Shinlim 6 District was confirmed through a public notice by the Seoul Metropolitan Government on May 28.
Located in the area around Sinwon-dong 419, Shinlim 6 District is characterized by aging low-rise residential buildings on a hillside. The project site spans approximately 37,771 square meters, with a floor area ratio of 249.61%, allowing for buildings up to 28 stories high, including 189 rental units.
Notably, the district is situated at the foot of Samsung Mountain and is adjacent to Shinlim Elementary School and its affiliated kindergarten, positioning it as a desirable residential area with access to green spaces and educational facilities.
The development will also integrate with the nearby Shinlim 5 District, enhancing the skyline and green corridors while considering the scenic views of Samsung Mountain.
To improve safety for students, a public pedestrian pathway will be established along Munseong-ro 28-gil, connecting to the main entrance of Shinlim Elementary School. The plan includes the installation of elevators and ramps to enhance accessibility for individuals with mobility challenges.
Gwanak-gu Mayor Park Jun-hee stated, "We will actively support the project to ensure residents can enjoy a more pleasant living environment as soon as possible."
Meanwhile, Gwanak-gu is advancing multiple redevelopment projects, including Shinlim 1, 2, and 3 Districts, as well as Bongcheon 13 and 14 Districts, establishing itself as a key area for urban renewal in southwestern Seoul. The Shinlim 5 and 6 Districts are expected to form a large-scale housing complex centered around Samsung Mountain.
