Changed status to cancelled. Developer took a decision to cancel the winning project and have engaged a different team to make a new masterplan for the site. That plan is less spectacular of course, with a 500m tall skyscraper as the main landmark tower.

Studio Daniel Libeskind has been named winner of the master plan competition for the Yongsan International Business District of Seoul, South Korea. The new large-scale district features a cluster of residential, office and retail neighborhoods in an extensive urban park along the Han River.

The plan, called Archipelago 21 because each of the linked neighborhoods functions like “islands” within a sea of green park space, will contain a total of 34 million square feet of built area. The $20 billion development is slated to break ground in 2011. The development entity is Yongsan Development Co., Ltd, a South Korean conglomerate. The district will also contain new cultural institutions, educational facilities and rapid transportation systems.

The main feature in this development is a landmark tower, 655m tall mixed use tower, putting Seoul and South Korea on the map of the world's tallest skyscrapers. The project also feature several other 200 to 400m tall skyscrapers.

Demolition of existing buildings started in January 2010.
