Abstract This study covers that the Land Readjustment Project in the late 1970s divided Seoul's residential space, housing type, and supply market. In the late 1970s, the government implemented a housing policy to build houses for the middle class expecting private construction companies to fulfill it. The statistical data from the Seoul Metropolitan Government and Korea National Housing Corporation, and related policy documents, laws, reports, newspaper articles were reviewed and analyzed. The significance of the housing policy and the Land Readjustment Project concluded in this study is as follows. First, the Land Readjustment Project divided the region into an area considering fragmented housing supply and an area expecting apartments for the middle class due to the deregulation. Second, the Land Readjustment Project created a difference in the size of land parcels in Yeongdong and non-Yeongdong areas and the differentiation pattern of the housing types. Third, the land parcel-based housing types divided the supply market, creating the tendency of masonry single-family houses depending on the market and concrete multi-family houses depending on the policy. In conclusion, Seoul's residential space, housing type, and supply market began to dualize in the late 1970s.
