The New Taipei City Government inaugurates the Houtong Cat Public Office in an effort to promote animal protection and increase adoption rates. The office, situated in a renovated old dormitory near the Houtong railway station, aims to enhance the adoption environment and highlight the cat village with its first director, an orange tabby named Dorayaki. Offering sterilization, medical, and adoption services, the initiative seeks to raise awareness and encourage the public to adopt cats responsibly, fostering an animal-friendly reputation for New Taipei City.

The Taiwan Railways Administration (TRA) plans to repurpose an old railway dormitory in Taipei’s central area, marking its first land development project. The TRA intends to construct a hotel and residential tower on the 1.2-hectare site, with development expected to begin in the third quarter of 2024. The estimated development scale is NT$6.23 billion, with residential tower prices potentially exceeding NT$2 million per ping. The TRA is considering different development methods, weighing the benefits and drawbacks of lengthy renovation processes for greater volume rewards versus faster construction with commercial developers but less building area. The final decision on the development method will be made by the TRA’s board of directors, while the allocation of renovations or joint construction may be outsourced or managed under a lease agreement.
