So Uk 1st phase to open

August 31, 2016

The first phase of So Uk Estate's redevelopment, comprising 2,917 public rental housing units, will be open to residents in late September.

 

The six redeveloped blocks of up to 29 storeys, will accommodate 7,600 people.

 

Facilities including outdoor play equipment, two badminton courts and a basketball court will open at the same time, along with a seven-storey welfare and community block, the So Uk Amenity & Community Building, and a lift tower with a covered footbridge.

 

Four structures from the former estate, namely a pergola with ceiling paintings, a little white shed, a stone building , and the ground and first floors of former Maple House have been retained for conservation and retail purposes.

 

The remaining eight domestic blocks of the redevelopment are still under construction. Of them, Camellia House is scheduled for completion in 2017/18 and the other seven, together with a shopping centre, will be completed in 2018/19.

 

The whole redevelopment scheme will provide 6,985 units for 19,500 residents upon completion.
