01 · HISTORY

How this neighborhood remembers change

Industrial era

Water infrastructure serves a growing city

Water-treatment structures on Seonyudo formed part of the infrastructure that supplied a rapidly expanding Seoul.

2002

A treatment plant becomes an ecological park

Existing basins and concrete structures were reused rather than erased, turning industrial remains into gardens and learning spaces.

Today

Neighborhood walking connects daily life to the river

The Seonyu walking street and bridge make the park part of a longer route beginning in Yangpyeong-dong's everyday streets.
