The Government plans to transform the Tsun Yip Street playground into the Kwun Tong Industrial Heritage Park. Development Bureau spokesman said the playground lies in the heart of the Kwun Tong Business Area. According to the Draft Kwun Tong (South) Outline Zoning Plan, the playground is zoned as 'Open Space' and is an invaluable "city lung".
     "We therefore should strive to preserve and transform this urban space into a place where people would like to work, to do business, to walk, to stay and to play. To this end, we will enhance tree planting and greening works and consider introducing new design elements for transforming the playground into Kwun Tong Industrial Heritage Park." He said the park will be a testament to the transformation of Kowloon East from an old industrial area into a new business centre, and a link for the past, present and future.
     According to the Conceptual Master Plan of Kowloon East 2.0, it includes exploring the possibility to develop the vacant lot of about 10,000 square metres under the Kwun Tong Bypass into a public space for staging arts and cultural performances.
     It will integrate arts and cultural activities into city life and create a unique atmosphere to set the scene for the transformation of Kowloon East.
