History
The estate is one of the first large developments in Hung Shui Kiu, which the Hong Kong Government plans to develop into a new town.
The Hsin Chong construction company built the first and second phases, comprising four domestic blocks, the single-storey commercial centre, and a three-storey car park.
The third phase was built by Yau Lee Group between January 2013 and April 2015. It comprises five residential blocks, a kindergarten, an elderly centre, and an integrated children and youth centre. The construction contract for this phase was valued at HK$1,232.47 million.
Description
The estate, managed by the Hong Kong Housing Authority, is located in Hung Shui Kiu Area 13 and has a site area of about 6.4 hectares.
The nine residential blocks provide 4,905 flats for about 12,900 people. They range in height from 16 to 24 storeys, which is unusually short by Hong Kong standards.
Aside from the residential blocks, the estate also includes a bus terminus, a shopping centre, a market, and various community facilities including a kindergarten, an elderly centre, and a youth centre.
The Social Welfare Department has proposed setting up a 50-place hostel for moderately mentally handicapped persons, as well as a 160-place integrated vocational rehabilitation services centre, within the Ancillary Facilities Block of Hung Fuk Estate.
Transport
The Hung Fuk Estate Public Transport Interchange is a covered bus station with three bays for franchised buses as well as a lay-by for green minibuses.
The estate is also 400 metres away from the Hung Shui Kiu Stop on the Light Rail.
