WTSDC Paper No. 47/2016 (5.7.2016)

Draft Planning Brief for the “Comprehensive Development Area (1)” Zone in Kai Tak Development

Purpose

The purpose of this paper is to invite views from Members of the Wong Tai Sin District Council (WTSDC) on the draft Planning Brief (PB) for the “Comprehensive Development Area(1)” (“CDA(1)”) zone in Kai Tak Development (KTD) (Appendix I).

Background

2. On 10 June 2016, the Metro Planning Committee (MPC) of the Town Planning Board (the Board) agreed that the draft PB was suitable for consultation with the City and Wong Tai Sin District Councils.

The Site and Its Surrounding Areas

3. The Site, with an area of about 1.77ha, is located in the North Apron area of KTD and zoned “CDA(1)” under the approved Kai Tak Outline Zoning Plan (OZP) No. S/K22/4 (Plan 1 of Appendix I). The Site falls within the central part of the Kai Tak City Centre and commands a convenient location with the Kai Tak Station of the Shatin to Central Link (SCL) located to its south-east. The Site is bounded by Concorde Road (Road D1) and Road L11 to the immediate north and east respectively (Plans 3 & 4 of Appendix I).

4. The surrounding areas comprise a mixture of land uses. A belt of “Government, Institution or Community” (“G/IC”) sites is situated to the north of the Site. A site zoned “Other Specified Uses” annotated “Mixed Use(2)” (“OU(Mixed Use)(2)”) is situated to the east. To the west of the Site is the Kai Tak River and the “CDA(2)” site for commercial development. Situated to the north-west is a proposed curvilinear landscaped elevated walkway which links San Po Kong, the 1/F landscaped deck of the Trade and Industry (TI) Tower and the “CDA(2)” site (Plans 3 & 4). The large open space to the south-east of the Site is the proposed Station Square (Plans 1 to 3).

5(5)_DC[P30](47-2016)-e 1 Planning Intention and Development Restrictions

5. The “CDA(1)” zone is intended for a comprehensive office/hotel/retail development, with lower structures of a cascading building height (BH) profile descending towards to the Kai Tak River/the curvilinear walkway. The zoning is to facilitate appropriate planning control over the development mix, scale, design and layout of the development, taking into account various environmental, traffic, infrastructure and other constraints.

6. According to the Notes of the “CDA” zone, developments within the “CDA(1)” zone is subject to a maximum a maximum plot ratio (PR) of 10, with maximum building height (BH) of 200 metres above Principal Datum (mPD) and 40mPD for the eastern and western sub-zones respectively. The eastern subzone is intended for the development of a landmark commercial development while the western sub-zone is intended for lower structures with a cascading BH profile descending towards to the Kai Tak River or the curvilinear walkway (Plan 3). While the proposed landmark development will supplement with the curvilinear walkway and the Kai Tak River to signify the prominent gateway image in the locality, the low cascading developments at both the Site and the adjoining “CDA(2)” site to the west would engender a sense of symmetry along the Kai Tak River vista framing a principle point of access to KTD (Plan 3).

Draft Planning Brief

7. Pursuant to section 4A(2) of the Town Planning Ordinance (the Ordinance) and according to the Notes of the OZP, an applicant applying for permission to develop on land designated “CDA” shall prepare a Master Layout Plan (MLP) for the approval of the Board.

8. The applicant should prepare the MLP in accordance with the planning intention for the “CDA(1)” zone, the development restrictions stipulated under the OZP, the urban design concept and development requirements. The general planning principles and development requirements of the “CDA(1)” zone that have been incorporated within the draft PB. The major development requirements are summarized below:

5(5)_DC[P30](47-2016)-e 2 Development Requirements

9. The maximum gross floor area (GFA) of the development is 177,000m2, subject to a maximum plot ratio (PR) of 10. To achieve an appropriate land use mix, a maximum GFA of 15,000m2 for the development of a hotel is stipulated and the remaining commercial GFA shall be for office/retail uses. A Public Transport Terminus (PTT) with a GFA of not less than 3,800m2 should also be provided. The maximum site coverage of the developments as stipulated on the OZP is 65%.

Urban Design Requirements

10. The urban design considerations include creating a focal point via a distinctive design for tower, adopting a cascading BH profile towards the Kai Tak River/curvilinear walkway and implementing a podium-free design with provisions of visual and ventilation corridors, and a high greening ratio as required in Kai Tak Development.

PLANNING BRIEF FOR THE “COMPREHENSIVE DEVELOPMENT AREA (1)” ZONE IN KAI TAK DEVELOPMENT 啟德發展「綜合發展區(1)」地帶規劃大綱

規劃署 PLANNING DEPARTMENT

二零一六年七月 JULY 2016

PLANNING BRIEF FOR THE “COMPREHENSIVE DEVELOPMENT AREA(1)” ZONE IN KAI TAK DEVELOPMENT

1. PURPOSE OF THE PLANNING BRIEF

1.1 The purpose of the Planning Brief (PB) is to set out the broad planning parameters and development requirements to facilitate the preparation of Master Layout Plans (MLPs) for the comprehensive developments of the “Comprehensive Development Area (1)” (“CDA(1)”) zone (the Site) on the approved Kai Tak Outline Zoning Plan (OZP) No. S/K22/4 (Plans 1 and 2).

1.2 Pursuant to section 4A(2) of the Town Planning Ordinance (the Ordinance) and according to the Notes of the OZP, an applicant for permission for development on land designated “CDA” shall prepare a MLP for the approval of the Town Planning Board (the Board).

2. PLANNING CONTEXT

2.1 The Site, which is located in the central part of the Kai Tak City Centre of the Kai Tak Development (KTD), is zoned “CDA(1)” under the approved Kai Tak OZP No. S/K22/4. The “CDA(1)” zone is intended for a comprehensive office/hotel/retail development. The zoning is to facilitate appropriate planning control over the development mix, scale, design and layout of development, taking into account various environmental, traffic, infrastructure and other constraints.

2.2 According to the Notes of the “CDA” zone, developments within the “CDA(1)” zone is subject to a maximum plot ratio (PR) of 10 and maximum building height (BH) of 40 metres above Principal Datum (mPD) and 200mPD for the western and eastern sub-zones respectively (Plan 3). The 200mPD sub-zone is intended for the development of an iconic commercial development while the 40mPD sub-zone is intended for lower structures with a cascading BH profile with descending BH to 15mPD towards the Kai Tak River or the curvilinear walkway to the southwest and northwest respectively. While the proposed landmark development will supplement with the curvilinear walkway and the Kai Tak River to signify the prominent gateway image in the locality, the low cascading developments at both the Site and the adjoining “CDA(2)” site to the west would engender a sense of symmetry along the Kai Tak River vista that frames a principal point of access to KTD.

2.3 In formulating the iconic landmark development concept, the broad urban design framework of KTD have been followed in that the BH profile reaches its maximum at the landmark tower next to the Kai Tak River and then graduates towards the Multi-purpose Sports Complex (MPSC) in the southwest (Plan 1).

– 2 –

2.4 Developments on the land designated ‘Shops and Services’ and ‘Eating Place’ uses along the south-eastern boundary of the Site (the retail frontage) are subject to a maximum BH of two storeys. It is envisioned that the retail frontage abutting the Station Square will enhance the vibrancy and the walking experience of the pedestrians in the area (Plan 1).

2.5 The two 5m wide NBAs along the Kai Tak River within the Site and the adjoining “CDA(2)” site will provide a wider vista along the River (Plans 3 & 4). A riverside walk on both sides of the river channel is planned. With the shops, cafes and eating places provided in “CDA(1)” site, a vibrant and festive public gathering place on riverside would be created.

Retail Belt and the Colonnade Design

2.6 The retail belt in the Kai Tak City Centre is to provide retail frontage so as to enhance the vibrancy and walking experience of the pedestrians in the area. To help create a more intimate ambience for the retail belt, a colonnade design concept, which comprises spacing columns at regular intervals, has been proposed (concept drawing showing the colonnade design is at Plan 5). As a unique building design feature, the colonnade design can help moderate wind and protect pedestrians from sun, rain and adverse weather, and bring back the old Kowloon atmosphere that Kai Tak once embraced.

2.7 To facilitate public circulation and to provide emergency and maintenance access to the northern part of the Station Square, the applicant shall form and designate a strip of land of 20m wide abutting the Station Square and Road L11 as NBA and be opened to the public on a 24-hour basis (Plan 4)1.

Dedicated Pedestrian Zones

2.8 Dedicated Pedestrian Zones (DPZs) of 4.5m wide within “Open Space” (“O”) zone on areas abutting the retail belt in the Kai Tak City Centre have been designated (Plan 4). DPZs can serve the purposes of facilitating natural lighting, ventilation and means of escape as required under the Building (Planning) Regulations for development sites adjoining the Station Square. The DPZs would be reserved for pedestrian circulation, within which development including most building structures, continuous fencing or the like would generally not be permitted. Underground structures, landscaping and street furniture, such as hard paved walkways, lawn, trees, scrubs and seating as well as amenity features (such as covered walkways and rain shelters which do not impinge on the purpose and function of the DPZ) will generally be permitted within the DPZs.

1 For information, a corresponding 30m-wide strip of land next to the subject 20m-wide NBA within the adjoining “Other Specified Uses” and “Mixed Use(2)” (“OU(Mixed Use)(2)”) site will also be designated as NBA. The two NBAs together would serve the purpose to facilitate public circulation and to provide emergency and maintenance access to the northern part of the Station Square. – 3 –

Underground Shopping Street

2.9 To improve the connectivity with the surrounding districts and the pedestrian environment, the OZP indicates a comprehensive Underground Shopping Street (USS) system at the North Apron area connecting Kowloon City and San Po Kong with KTD and the Kai Tak Station of SCL (Plan 1). The proposed USS is about 1,500m long, comprising two sections, namely the Kowloon City (about 20m wide and 1,100m long) and San Po Kong (about 15m wide and 400m long) Sections. It is planned to be developed partly under public roads (including Concorde Road (Road D1), Prince Edward Road East and Roads L7 and L16 to the further west of the area) and public open spaces (including the Station Square, the Preservation Corridor for Lung Tsun Stone Bridge Remnants and the Kai Tak River) (Plan 1). Some sections of the USS will be located within development sites zoned “CDA” and “Government, Institution or Community” (G/IC) on the OZP. The section of the USS within the Site which links up the Kai Tak Station of SCL as indicated on the OZP is shown on Plan 3. However, to match with the access points reserved at the concourse of the Kai Tak Station at basement level, there is minor adjustment of the USS alignment at the south-eastern portion as compared with that shown on the OZP (Plan 4). The adjusted alignment should be broadly followed for development and implementation. Minor adjustment to the alignment can be considered at the s.16 planning application stage. Pedestrian access from the USS shall be provided at ground level in order to connect to the proposed riverside walk along the Kai Tak River.

Public Transport Terminus

2.10 A public transport terminus (PTT) with a GFA of not less than 3,800m2 shall be provided at the ground level of the Site.

3. THE SITE AND ITS SURROUNDING AREAS

The Site

3.1 The Site is bounded by Concorde Road (Road D1) and Road L11 to the immediate north and east respectively, and served by the Kai Tak Station of SCL situating to its south-east. Three “OU” annotated “Amenity” sites which are intended primarily for the provision of landscaping and planting to enhance the environment are situated along the north-western boundary of the Site.

The Surrounding Areas

3.2 The surrounding areas comprise a mixture of land uses. A belt of “G/IC” sites, which are mainly for Government office developments including the newly completed Trade and Industry Tower, is situated to the north of the Site. A site zoned “OU(Mixed Use)(2)” is situated to the east. The Kai Tak River and “CDA(2)” zone for commercial development are located to its west. The large open space to the south-east of the Site, i.e. the Station Square, will circumscribe the future Kai Tak Station and associated – 4 –

commercial facilities within the area zoned “OU” annotated “Railway Station with Commercial Facilities” (Plans 1 to 3). Further south-east across the Station is the main residential clusters of the Kai Tak City Centre, i.e. the Grid Neighbourhood.

Landscaped Elevated Walkway

3.3 A curvilinear landscaped elevated walkway is proposed at the north-west of the Site connecting San Po Kong, 1/F landscaped deck of the Trade and Industry Tower and eventually the large platform of the “OU(Arts and Performance Related Uses)” zone (Plan 4). Another landscaped elevated walkway is planned to connect the proposed landmark tower of the Site with the said curvilinear walkway across Concorde Road (Road D1) and shall be constructed, managed and maintained by the applicant (Plan 4). The landmark tower, together with the curvilinear walkway and the Kai Tak River will shape a strong image at the locality.
