Pyeongtaek City Selects 4 Complexes for 'Excellent Apartment Landscaping' and Holds Photo Exhibition

[Suwon Ilbo=Reporter Seo Dong-young] Pyeongtaek City selected the '2020 Excellent Apartment Landscaping' on the 15th to promote its key policy of expanding parks and green spaces and activating landscape culture.

The city conducted the selection through application submissions for the first time for a total of 253 apartment complexes with 150 units or more that had completed occupancy permits or were scheduled to be completed. Eighteen complexes applied.

The city selected 4 apartment complexes through quantitative evaluation based on green space area and tree planting volume, as well as qualitative evaluation of themes including nature-friendly design, cultural coexistence, community communication, creation of safe and comfortable spaces, and establishment of rest and community areas, along with management conditions.

Photo exhibitions of these complexes will be displayed three times by the end of the year at City Hall and branch offices.

Pyeongtaek Mayor Jeong Jang-seon said, "Through the selection of excellent landscaping, we were able to confirm apartment sites with diverse landscape designs. We also saw the potential for growth as a global landscape culture city," and added, "We hope to establish this as a regular program to present landscaping models for new apartments and apply the excellent landscaping from the private sector to our city's urban parks."
