WELFARE CENTRE FOR LAM TIN ESTATE
Second To Be Built
Residents of the Lam Tin Resettlement Estate in Kwun Tong will
soon have a new welfare centre to cater to their recreational and welfare
needs.
A site at Kai Tin Road opposite Block 11 of the Estate has been
earmarked for the construction of the centre.
The centre will be a six-storey building providing accommodation
for voluntary agencies and youth clubs.
The ground floor will a welfare hall which can hold 200 to 300
people, while the upper floors will be used as offices as well as providing
a reading library.
The roof area will be converted into a covered playground with
swings, slides and roundabouts so that children can enjoy themselves in all
weather.
There will also be an open car park providing eight parking spaces
for the staff.
This is the second welfare centre to be built in the estate.
Construction work is expected to begin in mid-February, and will
be completed by November next year.
