Redevelopment of Sai Lau Kok Garden

Despite being located at the centre of Tsuen Wan District, Sai Lau Kok Garden suffered from low usage rates. To encourage the use of Sai Lau Kok Garden, it was redeveloped with enhanced connections to the Tsuen Wan mass transit railway station and nearby extensive footbridge network, serving as an urban hub. Sai Lau Kok Garden is now easily accessible by the community groups living in the district and provides spaces and amenities to satisfy the diverse needs of these groups in leisure time. The Garden is featured by the adoption of urban greenery and green building design which greatly facilitate the visual connection and urban ventilation.
