The Kwun Tong Town Centre project is one of the redevelopment projects announced by the Land Development Corporation in 1998. Occupying a site area of more than 500,000 square feet, this multi-billion-dollar project will be the largest single project undertaken by the Urban Renewal Authority (URA) affecting about 1,653 property interests and about 3,139 people. The URA commenced the statutory town planning approval process for the project in March 2007.
