Kowloon City Plaza

Kowloon City Plaza (KCP; Chinese: 九龍城廣場) is a shopping centre located at Kowloon City, Kowloon, Hong Kong. It was established in 1993, and it underwent a HK$100-million renovation from October 2005 to December 2006. The shopping centre re-opened on 26 January 2007. History On 28 November 1989, the site was purchased at government auction for HK$286 million by Lo Yuk-sui of development company Century City. Lo stated that his company planned to spend HK$700 million constructing a shopping and cinema complex, with a car park, on the site. A subsidiary of Century City, Cathay City International, launched the Kowloon City Plaza development. The property was sold to Paliburg Holdings, a related company, in December 1990 for HK$357 million. The complex received its occupation permit in May 1993. It opened later that year. Following the closure of nearby Kai Tak Airport, Paliburg Holdings proposed to build a 39-storey hotel on part of the site. However, this was rejected by the Town Planning Board on 19 November 1999, on the grounds that the scale of the proposal was not compatible with the site's surroundings. Kowloon City Plaza was acquired by real estate fund Pamfleet, in partnership with Morgan Stanley, for HK$2.03 billion in April 2004. Pioneer Global Group, a technology company, subsequently took a small stake in the deal. Morgan Stanley also outsourced the management to Far East Consortium International Limited. In October 2005, the management company carried out a major renovation, completed in 2006 at a cost of around HK$100 million, of the interior and exterior of the property. Rents doubled following the refurbishment. During the 2008 financial crisis, the property was sold to toy baron Francis Choi for HK$1.48 billion, and outsourced the management to Early Light. Location Kowloon City Plaza is located near the Kowloon Walled City Park and Carpenter Road Park. Description The building has a floor area of around 640,000 square feet (59,000 m2) and houses over 70 shops and eateries over seven shopping levels. It also had 400 parking spaces. The anchor tenant is Japanese supermarket and department store AEON, which occupies the entirety of the 2/F and 3/F levels.

As a result of the merger, the school became the largest secondary school in Hong Kong at the time. In the late 1960s and 1970s, Kowloon Technical School had more than 1900 students with 51 classes.

In 1997, the Review of Prevocational and Secondary Technical Education proposed that technical schools change their name by removing the labelling terms. Kowloon Technical School was invited to change their name to Kowloon Government Secondary School (九龍官立中學). However, due to the strong objections from the school administration, the original name of the school was preserved. In 1998, the teaching language was changed from English to Chinese. In 1999, the School Management Committee of Government Schools was founded.

Kowloon Tsai Park

Kowloon Tsai Park is a park located in the Kowloon Tsai area of New Kowloon in Hong Kong. It lies within the Kowloon City District and opened on 5 June 1964. History In the 1950s, the area was used as a borrow area to supply fill for the extension of the nearby Kai Tak Airport runway. The Urban Council commissioned architecture firm Leigh and Orange to draw up plans for the redevelopment of this area of "barren hills and waste lands" as a new recreational area for the citizens of Kowloon. The first phase of the new park opened in 1964. The Kowloon Tsai Swimming Pool, the first in Kowloon, was funded by the Royal Hong Kong Jockey Club and also opened in 1964. Originally, the pool was not open in the evening because it sat under the airport flight path, hence the Civil Aviation Department would not agree on the use of outdoor floodlighting there. Features The park consists of three football fields (2 artificial grass and 1 natural grass), two basketball courts, two 7-a-side football courts, one public swimming pool, two tennis courts, a Bauhinia Garden and children's playgrounds. Kowloon Tsai Sports Ground is located within the park. It consists of an international standard football field, running tracks and a spectator stand with bathroom facilities. The grandstand seats 1,216. The Kowloon Tsai Swimming Pool was the first swimming pool in Kowloon. It features a 50-metre competition pool and smaller leisure pools. The LCSD plans to reconstruct the pool complex to provide an indoor heated pool. The famous checkerboard for the Kai Tak runway 13 approach can be found at the top of the park. Due to this, the hill where the checkerboard was located was christened as Checkerboard Hill. See also List of urban public parks and gardens in Hong Kong References
