Ulsan Grand Park
Ulsan(Nam-gu)

Ulsan Grand Park is a high-quality green space that was created to improve the quality of life of Ulsan's residents. Since Ulsan City rapidly developed as a center of national economic development in 1960, its residents have been confronted with the problem of the deteriorating environment quality. Despite Ulsan City's positive "growth" image as an industrial city, especially for heavy industries, the negative image it eventually acquired as that of a "contaminated city" and "a city with a poor-quality life" became more pronounced over the years. Thus, the construction of a park became necessary. For this reason, Ulsan City, which has wanted to construct a park since 1986, finally began the construction of Ulsan Grand Park in 1995, together with SK, which plans to return its profits to the local community. The city invested US$59 million to purchase approximately 36 million㎡ of land in Shinjung-dong and Ok-dong, near the industrial tower rotary in Nam-ku, Ulsan Metropolitan City. SK invested a total of US$102 million for the construction of the park facilities for 10 years, from 1996 to 2005, and donated the park facilities to the city of Ulsan. Ulsan Grand Park is expected to help improve the quality of the residents' lives, to serve as a starting point of balanced growth for the city, and to facilitate the conversion of Ulsan from an industrial city to a city where industry and nature harmoniously co-exist.
