BUILDINGS AT CANTON ROAD
Kitchen Block Declared Dangerous
The Building Authority today declared the joint kitchen block of Nos. 1180 and 1182 Canton Road, Kowloon to be in a dangerous condition, and ordered demolition of the first and second floors.
In a statement issued this morning the Principal Government
Building Surveyor said that these three storey pre-war buildings were the subject of routine inspection when elements of the reinforced concrete structure were found to show signs of deterioration.
Further investigation and opening up of portions of the structure revealed that parts of the concrete framing of the joint kitchen block are in such a state of deterioration to be considered beyond repair.
It is intended that repairs to the main building will be carried
out under order.
Notice of intention to apply for Closure Orders in respect of the first and second floors of the joint kitchen block in Kowloon District Court at 9.30 a.m. on July 18, 1972, was posted today.
