Part 必 . ARCHITECTURAL PROGRAMMS
Article 15. Forward
The existing 'Yongdu Hill Park' (Busan Tower Complex placed on the Yongdu Hill/ Whole area: 69,000m2, development area: 25,000m2) with the Tower plays an important role as a welcome symbol of the city. It gives a warm reception to visitors entering through the Busan Port and is a visual identity of the city shared by the citizens in broad areas of the metropolitan city. The Park, moreover, provides an open space for resting and promotes the culture of the citizens as it is surrounded by the busiest downtown area (Nampo-dong and Kwangbok-dong) and is near traditional fish markets (Gukje market and Jagalchi fish market).
However, the traditional meaning of Yongdu Hill Park and the commercial importance of the downtown area are weakening as the shift is toward the central area. The completion of Lotte World II, the new 465 meter-high-skyscraper that will be constructed only a few blocks away from the park, may seriously impair the symbolic function of the relatively small urban park. As the Tower and other facilities in Yongdu Hill Park were constructed around thirty years ago and became worn, remodeling or reconstructing the existing buildings is necessary. Beyond this, as the poor, old park facilities could not satisfy the request of various requirements for a rest, leisure and recreation park, it is becoming just rest area for elderly people and a dancing area for some teenagers.
Article 16. Objective
There have been big changes in the Yongdu Hill Park area in the past few years. The Pusan International Film Festival has been held annually with great success in the theater streets of Nampo-dong since 6 years ago. The reconstruction of the seaside place including Jagalchi market will begin soon. A new 107 story high-rise hotel and department complex will be constructed near to the site in approximately six years. All of these will give visitors and tourists a more attractive image and demand re-composition of the cultural and traveling spaces in this area including the Park. In relation to changes in these spaces, Yongdu Hill Park has the potentiality that can invoke lots of new cultural and traveling resources. It also has the latency to activate the development of the urban environment and improve the urban scenery and images. Thus, through this International idea competition, the possibility and potentiality of Yongdu Hill Park should be suggested.
