This book investigates what the history of Hong Kongâs urban development has to teach other cities as they face environmental challenges, social and demographic change and the need for new models of dense urbanism.
The authors describe how the high-rise intensity of Hong Kong came about; how the forest of towers are in fact vertical culs de sac; and how the city might become truly âvolumetricâ with mixed activities through multiple levels and 3D movement networks incorporating âtown cubesâ rather than town squares.
