Jangji Stream in Songpa-gu Reborn as a Vibrant Waterfront Hub


Jangji Stream in Songpa-gu Connects the Community and Promotes Residents' Health
Reborn as a 'Waterfront Vitality Hub' in the City Center
Shall we take a closer look?
The 'Jangji Stream Waterfront Vitality Hub' has been open to the public since the 12th.
Songpa-gu's 'Jangji Stream,' which had been disconnected by facilities despite being adjacent to a large distribution complex (Garden Five), a legal complex, and a large residential complex, has been transformed into a waterfront garden in the city center that connects these hubs and promotes the health of residents.
The Seoul Metropolitan Government completed the creation of the 'Jangji Stream Waterfront Vitality Hub' in the area of 635 Munjeong-dong, Songpa-gu (near Garden Five), and opened it to the public on the 12th.
The 'Jangji Stream Waterfront Vitality Hub' was promoted as part of the 'Seoul-style Waterfront Emotional City' project, which transforms waterfront spaces throughout Seoul into leisure and cultural spaces that bring happiness to citizens' daily lives, and is the 15th result.

The 'Jangji Stream Waterfront Vitality Hub' is composed of various spaces along the stream for about 1km. In particular, the area that had been virtually disconnected due to the large outdoor units of Garden Five was transformed into a 'lawn,' and 'stands' connecting the legal complex, parks, and streams were created to dramatically improve accessibility so that anyone nearby residents and workers can easily visit and enjoy.
In addition, ▴'Rest areas' utilizing the shade under the bridge ▴'Observation decks' overlooking the stream ▴'Cherry blossom paths' that ensure pedestrian convenience ▴'Hwangto paths' for promoting residents' health have been created, completing a space where you can enjoy walks, rest, and cultural activities.

In particular, the construction of this waterfront vitality hub has greatly improved accessibility to Jangji Stream from Garden Five, the Munjeong-dong legal complex, and nearby large residential areas. The city expects this place to become a new waterfront attraction that citizens enjoy visiting for walks and relaxation.
In connection with this, the opening ceremony of the Jangji Stream Waterfront Vitality Hub was held on the 12th at Jangji Stream Geulsaem Small Park (635 Munjeong-dong). In the future, the city plans to operate various citizen participation programs that take advantage of local characteristics, focusing on the 'Jangji Stream Waterfront Vitality Hub,' and plans to continuously showcase various cultural events using the waterfront stands and rest areas.

The Seoul Metropolitan Government aims to create '1 Waterfront Vitality Hub per Autonomous District' and plans to complete two more locations by the end of this year: ▴Yeouicheon in Seocho-gu ▴Gupabalcheon in Eunpyeong-gu. The 16th waterfront vitality hub, 'Gupabalcheon (Eunpyeong) Waterfront Vitality Hub' (30 Jingwan-dong), will hold its opening ceremony on November 17th and be open to the public.
The Seoul Metropolitan Government said, "We moved about 10 air conditioner outdoor units that blocked Garden Five and the stream and created a spacious lawn to create an open space," and added, "We expect the Jangji Stream Waterfront Vitality Hub, which opened this time, to breathe new life into Jangji Stream and Garden Five in the southern part of Songpa-gu, and become a space for rest and communication that many citizens enjoy visiting."
