After nearly a century of operation, Taipei's first funeral home officially closed down and entered history due to the completion of the second phase of construction. Mayor Jiang Wan-an plans to temporarily convert the land into a parking lot after demolition, followed by potential long-term assessments for future development. Discussions on the site's future use range from creating social housing to mixed-use commercial buildings, with varying opinions among officials and the public. Additionally, debates on transitioning from symbols of authoritarian rule to promoting social justice, such as the potential removal of honor guards at the Chiang Kai-shek Memorial Hall, are ongoing.
