Construction of a High-Rise Residential and Commercial Complex on the Site of Novotel in Doksan-dong, Geumcheon-gu
Geumcheon-gu's 'Sindoksan Station Area Revitalization Project' Advances with Zoning Upgrade (Neighborhood Commercial to General Commercial) for Floor Area Ratio Relaxation... Youth Culture House Secured as Public Contribution Facility
Geumcheon-gu (Mayor Yu Seong-hoon) announced that it will promote the ‘Shin-Doksan Station Transit-Oriented Development (TOD) Project.’ A high-rise mixed-use residential and commercial building and a plaza will be constructed on the site where the Novotel Hotel in Doksan-dong used to be.
On August 22, the Seoul Metropolitan Government approved a revised version of the ‘Designation of the Shin-Doksan Station TOD Special Planning Zone and Detailed Development Plan,’ which is a modification of the Doksan District Unit Plan, at the 13th Urban and Architectural Joint Committee meeting.
The target site (Doksan-dong 1030-1 and one other parcel) is the location of the former Novotel Hotel in Doksan-dong, situated very close to Shin-Doksan Station on the Shinansan Line, scheduled to open in 2026. The area is centered around Siheung-daero, with low-rise residential neighborhoods on the east side.
The main points of this district unit plan revision are twofold. To strengthen the station area functions and promote high-density development, the land use zone was upgraded (from Neighborhood Commercial Area to General Commercial Area), allowing for a relaxed floor area ratio. Additionally, a ‘Youth Culture House’ to support youth leisure, hobbies, and autonomous activities was secured as a public contribution facility resulting from the development.
The detailed development plan will undergo architectural and traffic reviews and is expected to be officially announced by the end of this year.
