The new Central harbourfront will be the centrepiece of Hong Kong. Our vision for the new Central Harbourfront is to create a world-class showpiece at the heart of our city which is vibrant, attractive, accessible and symbolic of Hong Kong. In response to the request of the Town Planning Board, Planning Department has commissioned an Urban Design Study for the New Central Harbourfront to refine the urban design framework which will guide the detailed planning and design for realizing the planning vision.

The Urban Design Study for the New Central Harbourfront aims to refine the urban design framework and prepare planning/design briefs for key sites in the Central Harbourfront. The locations and design ideas for reassembling Queen's Pier and reconstructing the old Star Ferry Clock Tower will also be examined.

We would incorporate community inputs in the study through an open, transparent and collaborative public engagement process. It is our intention that the urban design for the new Central Harbourfront would be sustainable and able to meet our community aspirations.
