Ltd. was commissioned by the Planning Department (PlanD) to undertake the Urban Design Study for the Wan Chai North and North Point Harbourfront Areas – Feasibility Study (Agreement No. CE 54/2014 (TP) (herein referred as “the Study”). The overall objective of the Study is to work out a sustainable urban design framework (UDF) with harbourfront enhancement proposals (HEPs) to guide future implementation of the HEPs. 1.1.2 The Study has produced a refined Urban Design Framework Plan (UDFP), with HEPs for the five character precincts, namely the Celebration Precinct, the Pierside Precinct, the Water Sports and Recreation Precinct, the Revitalised Typhoon Shelter Precinct, and the East Coast Park Precinct. Broad assessment was carried out to establish the preliminary technical feasibility of the HEPs. 1.1.3 It should be highlighted that this study is by nature an urban design study. The study would provide an UDF to prepare for detailed design and engineering feasibility studies for individual works projects identified under the HEPs at implementation stage in future. 1.2 Study Area 1.2.1 The Study Area is located at the northern shore of Hong Kong Island, with a total land area of about 19 ha and water space of about 22 ha. The boundaries of the Study Area and the Area of Influence (AOI) are shown in Figure 1.1. 1.2.2 Details on existing baseline conditions and the statutory planning context are further elaborated in the Final Report. In formulating the urban design framework and design proposals, they are formulated based on, and therefore conform to the planning intentions and development restrictions of the respective land use zonings of the prevailing Wan Chai North and North Point Outline Zoning Plans (OZPs). October 2019 1 Agreement No. CE 54/2014 (TP) Executive Summary Urban Design Study for the Wan Chai North and North Point Harbourfront Areas 2 PUBLIC ENGAGEMENT 2.1 Public Engagement Process 2.1.1 Public engagement (PE) was the backbone of this Study. Views and opinions from the public and relevant stakeholders were sought through a 2-staged public engagement exercise to identify their aspirations and key issues as the basis for formulation of the UDFP and HEPs. The following flow diagram illustrates the interrelationship between the study phases and the two stages of PE activities. 2.1.2 PE Stage 1 was conducted during the period between 15 June 2015 and 15 August 2015 to engage public on the UDF. During the two-month period, various PE events/activities including interviews with the major stakeholders, focus group meetings (FGMs), resident workshops, on-site public events were conducted and the Eastern and Wan Chai District Councils (DCs) were also consulted. The public generally supported the study’s vision, the design themes of the five character precincts, and the UDF suggested by the Study. 2.1.3 PE Stage 2 was launched on 11 June 2016 and concluded on 20 August 2016, which aimed to engage public on the preliminary HEPs. During the PE2 period, various PE events/activities including design ideas competition, interviews with the major stakeholders, FGMs, public workshops, roving exhibition, on- site project display/exhibition, etc. were conducted and the Eastern and Wan Chai DCs were also consulted. The public had raised many comments and aspirations relating to the HEPs, such as provision of a continuous waterfront promenade, enhancement of the north-south connectivity, and providing more shading facilities, greenery and tree planting, continuous bicycle trail, pet facilities, etc. October 2019 2 Agreement No. CE 54/2014 (TP) Executive Summary Urban Design Study for the Wan Chai North and North Point Harbourfront Areas 2.1.4 The Harbourfront Commission (HC) has been closely engaged during the course of the Study. The HC’s comments have been taken into consideration in formulating the UDF and HEPs. Apart from the HC, views and comments of different stakeholder groups such as professional institutes, green groups, water sports organisations and art groups were also sought during the public engagement. October 2019 3 Agreement No. CE 54/2014 (TP) Executive Summary Urban Design Study for the Wan Chai North and North Point Harbourfront Areas 3 REFINED URBAN DESIGN FRAMEWORK 3.1 Design Vision and Positioning 3.1.1 The Wan Chai North and North Point harbourfront presents a rare opportunity to re-connect people to the water, to re-define the harbourfront with new programs to offer a unified, continuous, walkable journey for pedestrians, as well as to create spaces that are not purely infrastructural and functional, but for people to enjoy and experience. The vision for the “New Wan Chai North Point Harbourfront” is to develop: “an urban harbourfront re-connecting people to the water” 3.1.2 The proposed design vision and positioning were widely discussed and deliberated in the PE process with positive responses from the community and therefore the Study adopts the vision and positioning in finalising the UDFP and the HEPs. 3.2 Urban Design Principles 3.2.1 With reference to the overall positioning and vision, a set of refined urban design principles have been derived to guide the formulation of the UDF and design strategies: ▪ to create more distinct identity, character and stronger sense of place for the harbourfront; ▪ to enhance vibrancy and attractiveness along the harbourfront through diverse activities, programs and facilities for public enjoyment; ▪ to enhance pedestrian connectivity between the hinterland and waterfront, and to ensure that the waterfront/ public space is continuous and enjoyable; ▪ to ensure design flexibility in the design proposals and promote shared use design; ▪ to promote design that will make full use of the blue and green resources and opportunities to re-connect people with the water and promote water-friendly culture; and to foster a green harbourfront; ▪ to introduce smart, green and sustainable design elements; and ▪ to respect local cultural

  • 1O1O Next GTM Around the Island Race 2009
    for immediate release 7 November 2017 Turkish Airlines Around the Island Race Sunday 12 November Over 230 entries have been received for the 2017 edition of the Turkish Airlines Around the Island Race which will take place this Sunday 12 November. This year, the Title Sponsor is Star Alliance member, Turkish Airlines. The partnership between Royal Hong Kong Yacht Club (“Best Asian Yacht Club”) and Turkish Airlines (“The airline that flies to more countries than any other airline and the Skytrax award winner for four key categories in 2017”) will bring a lot of excitement to the Around the Island Race as the fleet flies around Hong Kong Island. Turkish Airlines is also sponsoring an Around the Island Race photography competition which will see one lucky person being chosen to win a return business class ticket from Hong Kong to any worldwide destination* operated by Turkish Airlines. Serhat Sari, General Manager of Turkish Airlines Hong Kong, said “we are very excited to be the Title Sponsor for Around the Island Race - the biggest public sailing event of the year in Hong Kong.” Mr. Sari continued, “This year is our 15th anniversary of operation in Hong Kong and we hope that through this sponsorship engagement with the sailing participants and a campaign with the public, will bring Turkish Airlines’ brand and service commitment even closer to this Asia’s World City. Anyone with the sight of the fleet from right at the waterfront in the harbor or from up on the Peak, or perhaps somewhere at the South Side stands a chance to snap that special photo and win.” This event is Hong Kong’s largest celebration of sail and will see Victoria Harbour filled to the brim with sailboats, before they set off on the 26nm circumnavigation of Hong Kong island.

Harbour Business Forum On-Site Liaison: Paul Zimmerman, Convener of Designing Hong Kong Harbour District Submitted by: Brian Berard Eric Rosendahl Jarrad Fallon Lucas Scotta Santiago Lora Alexander Wong Alexander Muir Becky Yang Submitted to: Project Advisor: Creighton Peet, WPI Professor Project Co-advisor: Andrew Klein, WPI Assistant Professor Project Co-advisor: Kent Rissmiller, WPI Professor Abstract Victoria Harbour is one of Hong Kong‟s greatest assets; however, the balance between recreational and commercial uses of the harbour favours commercial uses. Our report, prepared for Designing Hong Kong Ltd., examines this imbalance from the marine perspective. We audited the 50km of waterfront twice and conducted interviews with major stakeholders to assess necessary improvements to land/water interfaces and to provide recommendations on improvements to the land/water interfaces with the goal of making Victoria Harbour a truly “living” harbour. ii Acknowledgements Our team would like to thank the many people that helped us over the course of this project. First, we would like to thank our sponsor, Paul Zimmerman, for his help and dedication throughout our project and for providing all of the resources and contacts that we required.
