Cheonggyecheon Creek Restoration Project was a highly important historical work of Seoul with national attention at the beginning of the 21st century.
Through the restoration of the Cheonggyecheon Creek, Seoul was converted into environment-friendly and human-centered urban space. This project provided the opportunity for Seoul to lead the new paradigm in urban management in the 21st century and to renew the image of Seoul.
Along with the restoration of the cultural heritage site of Korea, Seoul was able to restore its 600 years of history and re-establish itself as a cultural city in which the tradition and modernity harmonize, thereby becoming a resting place and renowned tourist destination frequently visited by domestic and foreign tourists.
In addition, the project improved the surrounding environment and established new commercial zones, thereby inducing the advancement of Seoul as the hub city of Northeast Asia, international commercial city, and financial hub city.
The foremost experts in the Construction Project Management of Seoyoung were at the background of the successfully completed environmental restoration project.
