The area zoned for government, institution and community uses

covers 35.6 acres and includes a major arca on the proposed reclamation off

Tung Chau Strect.

Within this area, a site is reserved for a future civic centre

which will provide the main civic activities for the district.

In addition, sites are also reserved for three secondary schools,

a multi-storey car park, and for other government and community purposes.

To make up for the general deficiency of land for government and

community uses, three multi-purpose government complexes are proposed.

These will be located at the junctions of Pei Ho Street and Tai Nam Street,

Apliu Street and Maple Street, and Shanghai Street and Mong Kok Road.

It is intended that each of these complexes would serve as a

local community centre and would incorporate such facilities as a market,

hawker bazaar, schools, government offices, clinics, libraries, meeting

halls, parking and other much-needed community projects.

In addition to the government complexes, a number of small sites

for local community contres, hawker bazaars and off-street refuse collection

points are reserved throughout the district.

About two acres are reserved for residential use. The two sites

zoned for this purpose include Lady Grantham Villas and the Hong Kong and

Yau Ma Tei Ferry Company Ltd. workmen's quarters which are at the junction

of Tai Kok Tsui Road and Willow Street.
