Markets and other buildings
2.23. Tang Lung Chau Market, a hawker bazaar at Kwun Tong and alterations to Sai Ying Pun Market were finished. Working drawings and sketch plans for other market projects were held up pending a decision on the most suitable means of accommodating hawkers. The former military hutted buildings at Brick Hill were taken over and converted for use as a Hawker Control Force Training Camp. Working drawings were completed for the Sai Yee Street Depot, and were in progress for the Whitfield Depot at North Point. The first beach building was completed at Deep Water Bay, while sketch plans were started for another group at Stanley. Working drawings were in course of preparation by the architectural consultants for two large abattoir projects at Kennedy Town and Cheung Sha Wan.
