Q 39
B. U. O. Work.
A Cinematograph Theatre on Crown Land at Hunghom. A Cinematograph Theatre on N.K.I.L. 239 Sec. A, Kai Yan Road.
Spinning houses, rope and Hemp Godowns, etc., on K.I.L. 1094, Matangkau.
The erection of houses on the Kau Lung Tong Estate was continued and at the end of the year about 60 houses were almost completed.
Levelling of a large area, K.I.L. 1507, as an extension to the Garden City at Homuntin was completed, and houses were in course of erection.
Considerable development took place in the Kau Pui Shek district and several large blocks of houses were completed.
Work on the New Kowloon Dairy Farm Lots at Diamond Hill, to which the Kowloon Dairies are being transferred, was put in hand.
Attention is drawn to the fact that work on several lots in the Kowloon district has been discontinued for some time, and in certain instances, where reference was made in the 1924 report to works in progress, the position in 1925 was that the buildings were only in a state of semi-completion. This condition of affairs presumably may be attributed to the recent disturbances, as a result of which owners have either left the Colony for the time being, or their funds have become exhausted.
