Mr. J.A. Prescott

(Continued)

Summary of Principal Points

inadequate information in the

preliminary planning proposals;

publication of a layout plan in-

stead of a zoning plan; 'spotty'

distribution of major building

masses; zoning for Government

offices when a more accessible site

is available in Garden Road open

carpark; zoning for a school with-

out more justification of need;

the bi-secting of the site by

the central access road and the

junction with Queensway and Queen's

Road East; the siting of the

commercial area on Queensway which

should be properly related to the

Mass Transit Railway Admiralty

Station site if it is to be viable;

the Residential zone on the south-

eastern corner which has ill-

considered access and is totally

unrelated to the site potential in

terms of block forms and to the

scale of possible development if

existing tree cover is to be

retained.
