The curving façades of tenement blocks built in the colonial era have not only made one of the most unique features of Hong Kong’s urban landscape, these corner buildings were meant to serve the interests of the people as well as that of the developers.
The British colonial government encouraged the construction of balconies and verandas in 1935 by exempting their floor area from the land premium that developers were obliged to pay. These structures were hoped to provide shades to the pedestrian footpaths underneath, hence considered public facilities.
