KOWLOON KITCHEN BLOCK DECLARED DANGEROUS

The Building Authority today declared the kitchen block of

No. 241 Cheung Sha Wan Road, Kowloon to be in a dangerous condition.

The Principal Government Building Surveyor said the four-storey

pre-war building was subject to a routine inspection when it was found

that the reinforced concrete frame to the kitchen blook was seriously

spalled and the reinforcement badly corroded.

The condition is such that there is risk of collapse. A notice

of intention to apply for a Closure Order of the 1st, 2nd and 3rd floors

of the kitchen block in Kowloon District Court at 10 a.m. on August 10, 1972

was posted today.
