HA starts intake of residents at Hoi Ying Estate (with photos)
**************************************************************
     The Hong Kong Housing Authority (HA) always endeavours to provide affordable public rental housing (PRH) to low-income families with housing needs. The newly completed Hoi Ying Estate at Lai Ying Street, Cheung Sha Wan, started the intake process today (November 26), offering homes to about 3 400 people.
 
     Hoi Ying Estate consists of two non-standard domestic blocks, namely Ying Fai House and Ying Cheong House. The blocks are 33 and 40 storeys high respectively, providing a total of 1 319 PRH units. The various flat types include one/two-person, two/three-person, one-bedroom and two-bedroom with the smallest flat size at about 14 square metres and the largest at about 37 square metres. The monthly rents range from $1,210 to $3,201.
 
     "Some of the flats are installed with acoustic windows and acoustic fins to reduce the impact of road traffic noise," a spokesman for the HA said.
 
     "There is a landscape garden, a children's play area, a fitness area for both adults and elderly, and a table-tennis table for the enjoyment of the residents," the spokesman added.   
 
     To meet the daily needs of residents, the estate provides retail facilities including a supermarket, eateries and a convenience store, in addition to a medical clinic. Also for the convenience of the residents, there are covered walkways connecting the domestic blocks with the shops.
