A new housing complex was constructed in the same area following the demolition of a high-rise housing complex for low-income residents. The cemetery side half of a 24-meter-wide, 500-meter-long road running along the south side of the cemetery was divided into 18 lots, and nine groups of architects were in charge of designing two lots each. Atelier Bow-Wow designed three buildings with a total of 20 units, using two of the contiguous lots as the site. French windows of the same size are lined up in succession on three sides, east, west and south, and balconies of three sizes, large, medium and small, protrude from them.
