Hyundai E&C wins urban renewal projects in succession... The first THE H to be built in Korea’s sixth-largest metropolis

Hyundai E&C’s cumulative orders for domestic urban renewal projects are expected to hit five trillion won as Hyundai E&C won a 1.7-trillion-won redevelopment project to be conducted in Gwangcheon-dong of Gwangju Metropolitan City. This remarkable figure is close to the amount of orders received during the previous year which reached all-time high.

Hyundai E&C has been awarded a series of redevelopment and reconstruction projects worth 4.9585 trillion won in total just in five months, which is more than three times higher than the amount of orders received over the same period of last year. 

The Gwangcheon-dong redevelopment project, considered one of the biggest redevelopment projects in the country’s sixth-largest city, is designed to construct an apartment complex consisting of two basement levels and 33 floors above ground and community facilities for residents. The name of the new apartment complex was suggested as THE H LUCEDOR. “Luce” and “d’or” mean “light” in Italian and “gold” in French, respectively, signifying the intention of our company to build a so-called golden landmark in Gwangju nicknamed “the city of light.”

Hyundai E&C will join hands with SMDP, a US-based innovative design studio, to build the apartment complex of a global standard. In addition, Gwangcheon-dong has an easy access to main raods and transportation.
