Kaohsiung City has formally begun construction on the Zuoying District Dazhong Minzu (Ji 20) public urban renewal project. Deputy Mayor Lin Chin-jung, attending the ceremony, said the site, at the intersection of Minzu 1st Road and Dazhong 2nd Road, was used as a septic waste plant and asphalt plant as early as 1978, and after a long period of disuse, the implementation rights were obtained by Shangfa Construction, a subsidiary of Sunty Group. The total investment in the project is NT$15.3 billion.
The project plans to build 7 buildings, providing about 1,741 homes. These include 5 residential buildings, 1 Public Works Bureau office building, and 1 social welfare building combining a day care facility with social housing. Through rights conversion, the city government will obtain about 420 homes, 85 social housing units and 4 shops, as well as about 2,255 ping of office space.
On the north side of the site, an 836-ping park and surrounding public facilities such as plazas and roads are planned.
