Abstract

(Background and Purpose) Korea is confronting urban decay due to population decline and aging. To counter this, the government initiated the 'Urban Regeneration New Deal' project, allocating 50 trillion won over five years, starting in 2017. One of its policies, community-based regeneration, aims to enhance the physical environment of neighborhood living areas, activate communities, and revitalize declining regions. The objective is to address persistent issues like population decline, aging, urban decay, and vacancy by improving commercial and residential environments and promoting community engagement, with local authorities spearheading these efforts. This study focuses on Heungdeok Village in Mungyeong, a neglected residential area, to research feasible and sustainable urban revitalization strategies and formulate a master plan based on these findings. (Method) Using the 'Special Act on Urban Regeneration Activation and Support' as a foundation, this study utilizes urban decay indicators to analyze five legal indicators associated with the humanities and social aspects, industrial and economic aspects, and the physical and environmental elements of Heungdeok Village. This analysis seeks to comprehend the present situation of the target residential area and urban decay within the city. Additionally, by leveraging Senior Collective Housing (SCH) as a sustainable solution for senior housing issues and environmental improvements in the city, this research proposes feasible urban revitalization strategies for declining elderly residential areas. These strategies form the basis for examining the master plan and an overall strategic approach for the target area. (Results) Heungdeok Village qualifies as an urban decay area, evident from continuous population decline, an increasing proportion of elderly residents, and a rise in aging housing and vacant properties. This paragraph concentrates on addressing the challenges of the growing elderly population, aging residential environments, and regional decline. Sustainable urban regeneration strategies using Senior Collective Housing have been investigated for Heungdeok Village, proposing block-specific master plans tailored to the current conditions of the target area. (Conclusions) Transitioning to Senior Collective Housing can significantly address the housing issues of the elderly in neglected urban areas. It not only resolves elderly housing problems and enhances the urban environment but also fosters a sense of community and belonging, revitalizing urban areas. Repurposing vacant buildings and spaces through mixed-use development can transform them into diverse community hubs, fostering the formation of local communities. Additionally, utilizing underutilized spaces can offer new sustainable options and contribute to the revitalization of the local economy.
