With the Chief Executive in Council approving the draft Urban Renewal Authority Sai Yee Street/Flower Market Road Development Scheme Plan(DSP), the Town Planning Board said it provides a statutory land use planning framework to guide the plan’s implementation.
The development scheme area, covering about 29,315 sq m, is designated as “Other Specified Use” annotated “Mixed Use (1)” and “Other Specified Use” annotated “Mixed Use (2)”.
By adopting the “linked-site” approach and the “Single Site, Multiple Use” model, the DSP intends to achieve a holistic replanning of land uses in the Sai Yee Street/Flower Market Road area through redevelopment of various existing Government, Institution or Community (G/IC) facilities with adjoining urban fabric for a comprehensive mixed-use development.
A combination of various types of compatible uses includes residential, hotel, office, retail, G/IC, a sizeable public open space, cultural, recreational and entertainment uses.
