         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.
