    Heritage Conservation through Public Realm Improvement and Online Platform in the Smart Cultural Triangle Precinct An Interactive Qualifying Project Submitted to the Faculty of WORCESTER POLYTECHNIC INSTITUTE In partial fulfilment of the requirements for the Degree of Bachelor of Science By Mateo Carvajal Zhi Hui Peter Nolan Date: March 20th, 2017 Report Submitted to: Sujata Govada Urban Design and Planning Consultants International Institute of Sustainable Urbanisation Hendrik Tieben Chinese University of Hong Kong Holly K. Ault and Roger Y. Lui Worcester Polytechnic Institute Project Number: IQP-RYL-C172 Hong Kong This report represents work of WPI undergraduate students submitted to the faculty as evidence of a degree requirement. WPI routinely publishes these reports on its web site without editorial or peer review. For more information about the projects program at WPI, see http://www.wpi.edu/Academics/Projects. Abstract As part of the development of the Smart Cultural Triangle Precinct (SCTP) in Hong Kong, our team worked with Urban Design and Planning Consultants Int’l and the Institute of Sustainable Urbanisation to assess and provide new ideas and visions for the creation of the SCTP. Based on our observations, interviews with professionals, survey results and desk research, we suggest that improvements be made to the pedestrian areas and open spaces within the SCTP. Improving these public areas will help to improve the value of the local built heritage as people become encouraged to explore their local community. We also provided our sponsors with suggestions for online tools to serve as a knowledge exchange platform and a way for visitors to learn and interact with the area and the activities within.

  • Old Town Central
    Old Twon Central One Day Tour The whole tour program takes approx. 7 hours. Exact meeting time and place will be per information at time of booking. Tour Program : Possession Street → Tai Ping Shan Street → Chinese YMCA of Hong Kong, Bridges Street Centre → Man Mo Temple → PMQ → Gough Street → Pak Tsz Lane Park → Kung Lee Herbal Tea → Hollywood Road → Tai Kwun → Pottinger Street Possession Street Ordinary as it may seem, Possession Street has a significant place in the history of Hong Kong. On 25 January 1841, the British navy landed at nearby Possession Point and began 150 years of colonial rule. Originally perched on the waterfront, Possession Street was given a new lease of life through r eclamation. The area is now dotted with hip restaurants and boutiques, alongside historic stores where you can still sample a taste of an older Hong Kong. Tai Ping Shan Street Tai Ping Shan Street is part of PoHo, which also includes Po Hing Fong, Pound Lane, Sai Street and Square Street. In contrast to much of the surrounding area, PoHo is a quiet neighbourhood where shops selling hip goods from around the world are nestled between galleries and teahouses; and design studios meet vintage stores in a discreet little bohemian neighbourhood. Chinese YMCA of Hong Kong, Bridges Street Centre Local architecture was greatly enriched when Western and Chinese influences came together during the colonial era. The Bridges Street Centre of the Chinese YMCA of Hong Kong is a case in point.Completed in 1918, the centre is a six-storey blend of Chicago School architecture and Chinese roofing techniques.
