Songhyeon Drainage Reservoir, located in Incheon Metropolitan City, is one of Korea's first modern water supply facilities and is a historic facility that began construction in 1906 and was completed in 1908. In 1910, water was supplied to the Incheon metropolitan area through a water pipe connected to the Noryangjin water source, laying the foundation for the modern water supply system. Currently, it maintains a water retention capacity similar to that at the time of completion, and facilities that display the characteristics of modern civil engineering architecture, such as a water drain room, granite stairs, and an iron main gate, remain. It is evaluated as a meaningful cultural heritage that allows us to examine the history of Korea's water supply development history and modern urban infrastructure.
