CitySpeak XIV: Privatised Public Space - Do new guidelines solve the problems?

Fringe Club
Saturday, 24 July
10am - 12.30pm

With the Times Square controversy, questions were raised about the management, legal status and design quality of Hong Kong's public open spaces in private developments. In response, the Development Bureau commissioned a study to develop new design and management guidelines.

Why is it important to plan for public facilities in private developments? Will the proposed new guidelines help? Who will benefit? Who is paying for the process? How do we make our public spaces in private developments more attractive for the public?

Join designers, developers, community members and officials of the Development Bureau to look at examples of effective guidelines, and at the strengths and weaknesses of the proposed new guidelines.

Speakers:
Gracie Foo, Deputy Secretary (Planning and Lands)
Wallace Chang, Chinese University
Sujata Govada, The University of Hong Kong
Chris Law, Director, Oval Partnership
Mark To, Urban Planning Activities
Paul Zimmerman, Designing Hong Kong

Moderator:
Hendrik Tieben, Chinese University
