Jan 2026Maidstone Road Residential Redevelopment
The site for the project is located on on 51 Maidstone Road, in To Kwa Wan. To Kwa Wan, meaning "Potato Bay," historically a district with roots tracing back to Hakka settlers who cultivated sweet potatoes there. Initially a farming area, it later became a granite quarry site, contributing to the construction across the harbour throughout the 19th century and for the Kai Tak Airport. Post-World War II, it transformed into a hub for light industries for toys and textile manufacturing, and later the public housing and factory buildings that have risen concurrently have become the urban fabric as seen today.
