Regional Commercial Hub
With a comparative advantage due to its good
accessibility to the city centre and proximity to
the residential developments, TCE provides an
opportunity for the development of a regional
office node at the Metro Core Area near the
proposed TCE Station. Together with the other
retail and hotel uses in the town centre and
waterfront area, an additional sum of about
2
800 000m commercial floor space and about
40 000 job opportunities will be created (Figure 20).
As such, the job opportunities in Tung Chung New
Town will be more diversified, ultimately encouraging
employment within the district.
