Lung Poon Court, Public housing estate in Diamond Hill, Hong Kong.
Lung Poon Court is a housing estate with seven residential blocks totaling approximately 3,680 units located in Wong Tai Sin District in Kowloon, near Plaza Hollywood. The blocks are arranged methodically with different unit types distributed throughout to serve various household configurations.
The estate was established in 1987 as a response to Hong Kong's growing housing shortage and the need for affordable ownership options for lower-income residents. This development marked a shift in housing policy that allowed ordinary families to transition from renting to property ownership.
The estate allows families with moderate incomes to own their homes rather than remain in rental housing indefinitely. This ownership model has fostered a stable residential community where residents take an active interest in their surroundings and neighborhood conditions.
The estate provides direct access to Diamond Hill MTR station and is served by many bus routes, making travel to other parts of Hong Kong convenient. Its central location means that most daily destinations across the city are accessible within a short travel time.
Each block in the estate features distinct floor plans and layouts rather than identical repetition of the same design. This variety creates a mixed community where different household types live alongside one another rather than being segregated by apartment type.
