[Suwon Ilbo = Reporter Jung Jun-sung] Suwon Special City announced on the 15th that it has been finally selected for the industrial complex environmental development project competition led by Korea Industrial Complex Corporation and will create a complex cultural space including a youth culture center, parking lot, and cultural plaza at Suwon Delta Plex, with completion targeted for 2029.

The project, which will invest a total of 42.7 billion won including 13 billion won in government funding, will proceed in the areas of the 2nd Public Parking Lot in Gosaeк-dong (1107 lot) and Baedari Park (1111 lot).

In the parking-exclusive building, a youth culture center (floors 1-2, 3,500㎡) and parking lot (floors 2-5 and rooftop, 11,500㎡, 430 spaces) will be created, and Baedari Park (20,929㎡) will be remodeled as an open cultural plaza. Construction is scheduled to begin in October 2025, with completion targeted for October 2029.

The youth culture center will feature youth-friendly spaces encompassing culture, sports, and startup incubation functions, while the open cultural plaza will provide rest areas and cultural spaces that workers and local residents can enjoy together.

By creating the youth culture center and parking lot together in the parking-exclusive building, accessibility and convenience will be enhanced, and parking shortages in nearby areas are expected to be resolved.

The city plans to sign a cooperation agreement for the competition project by the end of September and establish a comprehensive plan from October 2025 to proceed with the project in earnest.

A city official stated, "This project will resolve parking issues in Suwon Industrial Complex and play a significant role in attracting young people and revitalizing regional culture," adding, "We will create an innovative space where youth and workers can gather together to improve the image of the industrial complex and inject vitality into it."
