Rih Sheng Construction Wins Kaohsiung R17 Urban Renewal Project, Targeting TSMC Supply Chain Demand
Rih Sheng Construction has signed a contract with the Kaohsiung City Government for the 'Kaohsiung MRT R17 World Games Station Area A5 Block Urban Renewal Project.' Located about 1.5 km from TSMC's Nanzih plant, the project plans for Class A commercial offices, industrial operational spaces, and corporate housing, aiming to meet the demand from the Northern Kaohsiung semiconductor supply chain and technology talent. Its department store brand, Eslite Spectrum, will also expand into Kaohsiung, with completion expected by 2030.

(Central News Agency reporter He Hsiu-ling, Taipei, 29th) Rih Sheng Construction announced the completion of a contract signing with the Kaohsiung City Government for the 'Kaohsiung MRT R17 World Games Station Area A5 Block Urban Renewal Project.' Located approximately 1.5 kilometers from TSMC's Nanzih plant, the project plans for Class A commercial offices, industrial operational spaces, and corporate housing, targeting the demand for semiconductor supply chain companies and technology talent in Northern Kaohsiung. Its department store brand, Eslite Spectrum, will also establish a presence in Kaohsiung, with completion expected by 2030.
The Kaohsiung City Government held the signing ceremony for the 'Kaohsiung MRT R17 World Games Station Area A5 Block Urban Renewal Project' today. Kaohsiung Deputy Mayor Lin Chin-jung stated that the Executive Yuan approved the preparatory planning project for the Nanzih Science Park P6 plant in July 2025, and TSMC will establish six advanced process fabs in Kaohsiung's Nanzih Industrial Park.
He said that to meet immediate production needs, suppliers must form clusters with wafer fabs. Advanced processes require collaborative R&D with equipment and material suppliers. Close proximity allows engineers from both sides to collaborate, shortening the cycle from experimentation to mass production of new technologies.
The R17 Station A5 public urban renewal project was established to meet benefits such as production efficiency, stable supply chain risk, and technological innovation collaboration, and to align with TSMC's mass production schedule. The entire project is expected to break ground in November this year and be completed by the end of 2030, supporting the development of Kaohsiung's semiconductor industry supply chain and the housing needs of technology talent.
Rih Sheng Construction Chairman Lin Jung-hsien stated that the rapid formation of the technology industry in southern Taiwan means urban development needs are no longer just residential, but comprehensive urban planning combining transportation, industry, and living functions. The R17 World Games Station urban renewal project is an important layout planned by the government for urban development, adapting to changes in industrial structure.
Rih Sheng Construction pointed out that in recent years, the government has promoted the southern Taiwan semiconductor S-corridor, accelerating the transformation of southern Taiwan from a traditional heavy industry base to a high-tech manufacturing center. The 'Kaohsiung MRT R17 World Games Station Area A5 Block Urban Renewal Project' signed with the Kaohsiung City Government is located at an important transportation hub in Kaohsiung, near the Zuoying High-Speed Rail Station, and connects to the Nanzih Technology Industrial Park and Ciaotou Science Park, possessing three major advantages: transportation, industry, and urban construction.
The base of this project is approximately 1.5 kilometers from TSMC's Nanzih plant, with a land area of approximately 13,884 square meters (about 4,200 pings). It will develop three buildings, including Class A commercial offices, industrial operational spaces, and 618 corporate housing units.
This project will adopt the TOD (Transit-Oriented Development) model, integrating commercial, office, and residential functions. Its Eslite Spectrum department store will also simultaneously establish a presence in Kaohsiung, introducing retail, dining, and lifestyle service brands, creating a composite urban hub that combines transportation, industry, and living.
