Over time buildings, parks, and infrastructure soon emerged from the sand. The photo was a view from my Songdo office in 2018.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\" id=\"ember630\">Stepping back some\u2026 the community, now called Songdo International City, was developed with Western amenities and covers roughly 1500 Acres complete with a Central Park, an international school, and a Jack Nichols-designed golf course&#8211;all within a short distance of the Incheon shipping port and the international airport.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\" id=\"ember631\">It was also an early adopter of buildings with LEED certification, which provides a framework for healthy, highly efficient, and cost-saving green buildings. Plus, Songdo was seen as a frontrunner as a Smart City innovator. Today, it is one of 3 districts of the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.linkedin.com\/company\/ifez\/\">Incheon Free Economic Zone<\/a> and home to the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.linkedin.com\/company\/incheon-global-campus\/\">Incheon Global Campus<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\" id=\"ember633\">Today, I am happy to continue to share and highlight Songdo<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Question?
