| Abstract |
The study of the West Kowloon Cultural District development area, secured through large-scale reclamation projects around Hong Kong’s
West Kowloon Station, reflects a commitment to promoting sustainable development while capturing the essence of cultural identity and
memories within the context of Hong Kong's unique street lifestyle, humanities, and social fabric. Specialized strategies have been introduced
in the West Kowloon District to address urban challenges comprehensively and function as part of an integrated circulation system. These
strategies encompass four main types: urban density reduction, achieved through a zoning plan emphasizing low-density development; traffic
congestion alleviation, utilizing a triple node system accommodating both powered and non-powered means of transportation; air pollution
reduction, with a focus on establishing a green axis through an ecological passageway in the city center; and economic revitalization, realized
through mixed-use development integrated into urban and ecological circulation, resembling a vast ultra-organism reliant on the transportation
network. In conclusion, guided by this development strategy, the initiative stands as a crucial instrument for advancing sustainable
development and preparing measures to enhance its trajectory. |
