City Planning - Maunsell Joint Venture Nov 2006 Page 1 - 1 Agreement No: CE 4/2004 (TP) South East Kowloon Development Comprehensive Planning and Engineering Review Stage 1: Planning Review (Feasibility Study) 2 REVISED PRELIMINARY OUTLINE DEVELOPMENT PLAN 2.1 Study Area and Major Proposals 2.1.1 The Study Area (namely Kai Tak Development or KTD) covers an area of 328 ha, including 48 ha of existing built-up area adjacent to the ex-airport site. Taking into account the site constraints and opportunities and the compatibility with the surrounding districts, six main districts have been identified within the Study Area (Figure 2.1.1). The major planning and development proposals as shown in the revised PODP are summarized in the following. Kai Tak City Centre (North Apron East) 2.1.2 Served by the SCL Kai Tak Station and possessing a vast piece of flat land, North Apron East is well-placed for commercial/office uses and integrated residential development. This new city centre will also be compatible with, and also has high potential to act as a regeneration catalyst for, the surrounding business and residential areas such as San Po Kong and Kowloon City. 2.1.3 A Station Square is proposed above the underground SCL Kai Tak Station to act as the focal point of this district. A high-quality office belt of around 390,000m2 office GFA (complemented by other commercial facilities and residential uses) is proposed along the northern side of the Station Square, which will extend along Prince Edward Road East to Sung Wong Toi Park. Two committed public housing sites are located to the east while a specially designed residential cluster in grid form is planned to the south. Sports Hub (North Apron West) 2.1.4 Commanding a prominent location at the harbour-front and being in close proximity to the proposed Metro Park as well as the existing communities in To Kwa Wan and Kowloon City, North Apron West is considered a favourable location for a multi-purpose stadium complex. Its bay location offers prominence to the iconic main stadium in the harbour-front. Its rail-accessibility and proximity with the existing neighbourhoods render the sports facilities convenient for the use of the local residents, the rest of Hong Kong people and visiting sportsmen alike. Metro Park (Runway North and around KTAC) 2.1.5 To improve the water circulation in KTAC, a 600m wide opening is proposed across the northern part of the Runway. A piled deck will be provided above the gap to maintain the original configuration of the historical runway. This deck offers a precious opportunity to create a sizeable harbourfront park, The Park will be further extended into North Apron, integrated with the Sports Hub and forming a comprehensive open space network including SungWong Toi Park, Station Square and North Apron District Park. City Planning - Maunsell Joint Venture Nov 2006 Page 2 - 1 Final Technical Report No.4H Runway Precinct (Middle Runway) 2.1.6 To maximize the unique advantage of panoramic sea view on both sides, a runway precinct with mixed residential/hotel/retail/cultural uses in the middle section is planned. On the harbour-side of the precinct, a hotel belt with a mix of entertainment, conference and retail provision will be developed. On the KTAC side of the precinct, low density and medium rise housing with private gardens will be developed. 2.1.7 A shopping street is also planned along the harbour-side of the Runway Precinct to maintain vibrancy from Metro Park to the Tourism and Leisure Hub. Tourism and Leisure Hub (Runway South) 2.1.8 With considerable water depth and water manoeuvring space, Runway South is endowed with the natural advantages for cruise terminal development. A tourism and leisure hub is further planned to capitalize on this anchor as well as the stunning harbour view at the Runway end. A 190,000m2 GFA hotel/retail/entertainment complex is planned, as well as a runway park at the runway end. South Apron Corner (South Apron) 2.1.9 A variety of commercial and G/IC uses (including an around 7 ha hospital site) are planned in South Apron to act as a smooth transition between the Runway attractions and the surrounding Kowloon Bay and Kwun Tong business areas, and help the regeneration of the latter. 2.2 Land Use Budget and Key Development Parameters 2.2.1 Land Use Budget 2.2.1.1 The land use budget for the Study Area is shown in Table 2.2.1. Table 2.2.1: Land Use Budget for the Study Area SEKD CFS * Revised PODP Uses Area (ha) % Area (ha) % Commercial - - 18.96 5.78 Special Residential - - 9.17 2.80 Residential Zone 1 39.28(1) 8.53 1.22 0.37 Residential Zone 2 41.13(2) 8.93 20.87 6.36 Residential Zone 3 22.43(3) 4.87 6.07 1.85 Government 29.25 8.92 Institution or 51.57 11.19 3.02 0.92
