Hong Lam Court, Public housing complex in Sha Tin District, Hong Kong.
Description
Hong Lam Court is a residential complex in Sha Tin comprising three apartment blocks arranged on a sloping site. The development sits next to a primary school and shops that serve the everyday needs of residents living in the area.
History
The complex was developed in the 1980s on former farmland as part of Sha Tin New Town's expansion. This housing project was a key part of the Housing Authority's effort to create new residential areas across the region during that decade.
Culture
The residential blocks integrate with the surrounding village environment through architectural elements that received recognition from the Hong Kong Institute of Architects.
Practical
The site sits on sloped terrain, so different areas require varying degrees of walking and some elevation changes. Plan for uneven ground and wear comfortable shoes when exploring the residential layout and community spaces.
Did you know?
A striking feature is the 26-meter clock tower that marks the commercial area and serves as a visual landmark for the entire estate. This tower is visible from many parts of the development and helps residents and visitors navigate and orient themselves.
