Kwun Tong Resettlement Estate

Kwun Tong Resettlement Estate was built in the 1950s. It was the first resettlement estate developed in Kwun Tong, commonly known as “雞寮” (kai liu). The space of a flat in resettlement estate building was very small. There was no kitchen or washroom inside the flat. Residents had to cook outside the flat. Toilets and bathrooms were shared. There was even a public water tap room for cloth washing. The roof was commonly used as school classrooms and community activities area. Between 1980s and 1990s, the area was redeveloped into the present-day Tsui Ping Estate.
