Beatrice Mok and her husband are experiencing significant challenges with their long-term residence in To Kwa Wan, a district with a unique waterfront setting. They’ve been living in the “five streets” tenement for approximately four decades and are now considering moving out. The couple acknowledges the difficulties of relocating, particularly due to the building’s age and the presence of structural issues. They report experiencing physical limitations associated with the stairs and water leakage in their flat. The Hong Kong Urban Renewal Authority is currently conducting a review of the payout structure related to previous projects in the area. The review aims to assess the financial implications of these past developments and potentially offer avenues for compensation to residents.
