History

In 1950, the

Republic of China

. In order to provide housing for the American military officers based in Taiwan, the United States built residences for them. The largest remaining intact group of residences is located in Yangmingshan.

When the United States severed official diplomatic relations with the

Republic of China in 1978, the houses were abandoned. However, the Bank of Taiwan began renting out part of the houses to locals, including such noted people as Lin Yang-kang and Stan Lai.^[2] Other houses taken over by the Council for Economic Planning and Development are now residences for employees of the American Institute in Taiwan

(AIT).

The former

Armed Forces Network Radio Taiwan (now called ICRT) was also located in the area until the year 2000, when it relocated to Zhongshan District, Taipei
