PLEASURE GROUND FOR KWUN TONG
Construction Work To Start This Month
The many thousands of people, both young and old, living in
the Kwun Tong industrial area, will soon have another pleasure ground.
Government plans to build a 2.6 acres playground in the heart
of Kwun Tong. It will be named the Tsun Yip Street Playground.
The project will provide a rest garden, a children's playground,
a games area for recreational activities, a changing and toilet block and
a kiosk,
The games area will consist of two mini-soccer pitches, a
basketball court, a basketball-cum-volleyball court and a roller skating
rink which will be flood-lit at night.
The park area will also be lit to street lighting standard to
enable it to remain opened to the public even after dark.
Construction work is expected to start this month and will
take about 18 months to complete.
