Project Description

A study of a former Gas Works site in a residual industrial area taking into account the urban renewal intentions and future new developments in the adjoining South East Kowloon Reclamation Development Area. A multi-disciplinary approach was applied to cover land use planning, urban design, architectural, environmental, engineering and traffic issues. The potential environmental impacts from the remaining Gas Works North Plant were carefully addressed and a number of mitigation measures were proposed to reduce the social risk level. The Study proposed land use restructuring and the Site was successfully gazetted for composite residential use. A more detail Planning Application with the support of all necessary technical assessments was sub-sequently approved by the Town Planning Board.
