Vacant Building Waiting to be Demolished in Yue Man Square, Kwun Tong 裕民坊待拆唐樓

Vacant Building Waiting to be Demolished in Yue Man Fong, Kwun Tong 裕民坊待拆唐樓


Yue Man Square and the surrounding streets have always been the town centre of Kwun Tong until now.  Several streets and many rows of old buildings are now vacant as they are waiting to be demolished to give way to one of the largest urban renewal projects planned by the Hong Kong Urban Renewal Authority.

裕民坊一帶多座唐樓快將清拆重建。舊區快將消失。

wiki 有關 裕民坊 的中文介紹:

在1950年代末及1960年代初,位於當時的觀塘新市鎮心臟地帶的裕民坊已開始發展。而到了現時,林立的商舖更擴展至鄰近的各個街道,包括銀行、金舖、時裝店、超級市場、戲院等,每一條街都有其獨特的色彩。例如物華街過去就以金舖及銀行的集中而著名。此外該處更設有多間食肆,提供各類的中式美食,例如粵菜、潮菜等
