No new property of any kind to be erected that doesn't conform to certain standards of beauty, and no ugly buildings to be erected in the Colony's beauty spots! It has always seemed amazing to me that the Colony's architects have not been able to think out a certain beautiful and distinctive architec- ture, combining perhaps the best of both the Western and Eastern, "Again I am aware of the economic difficulties but beautiful buildings need not necessarily be expensive

KOWLOON PROMENADE

A Kowloon Promenade. There can be few places anywhere where there has been such a complete disregard of any sort of Town Planning (except for Nathan Road which is an admirable piece of work), or such refusal to consider the comfort or convenience of the residents, as Kowloon

But even now, it is not too late to do something when that area has ceased to be a Godown as it is at present. Bridges, or Crossings could be erected over the railway and, if necessary, a little more re- clamation could take place and a promenade bullt along by the sea." Such a project, if carried out. would make central Kowloon a -very-destrable lying area.

Street Names. Still mindful: of my main theme of Beauty, the ugliness of the names of some of our streets must be obvious to many with sensitive minds. To call a road, for example, by the|| same of Stubbs was, no doubt, a compliment to the popular Goyer- por but scarcely conforming to any criterion of, beauty.
