Town Centre of Tseung Kwan O South

Situated at the heart of the New Town, the Town Centre of Tseung Kwan O South is emerging to create
a new and distinctive waterfront district near Tseung Kwan O and Eastern Channel with the objective of
fostering a unique district identity (Figures 10 and 11). A diminishing building height of development
towards the waterfront is advocated in
order to enhance variation in the height and
massing of new developments. A mix of land
uses embracing residential, retail, leisure
and entertainment activities help shape the
Town Centre into a vibrant and attractive
townscape.

The Town Centre of Tseung Kwan O South
is featured with ample open space to
foster its identity and provides recreation
opportunities for the residents.

A north-south running ‘Central Avenue’ is
a landscaped pedestrian-retail corridor to
connect the transport focal point in Tseung
Kwan O Station with the proposed waterfront
park, enhancing the physical and visual
connectivity. Alfresco dining is planned
along the waterfront promenade.

A waterfront promenade to the south of the
‘Central Venue’ is intended for passive
recreational use with a high quality
landscaping design to serve as an urban
civic space.
