ARCHITECTURE IN HONG KONG
Last Thursday week we wrote on the empty flats in the Colony of which we have been informed there are about a thousand on
landlords hands it the present moment. This is unfortunate be- cause it means that building will be curtailed in the future-though there is ample evidence that a good deal is still going on--which may sound paradoxical under the circumstances. However, our regret is not prompted by the wish to see still more empty flats, but because it may be some time before the new type of house-the Dymaxion --will be seen in Hong Kong. Of course, some landlord, in accord ances with the motive which prompted so many of his confreres, may decide to pull down his block of old fashioned apartments and rebuild in order to have some thing more up-to-date to compete against the modern flats which pthers have erected. It is for his benefit that this is written.
