“New l<strong>and</strong>, new home, new life!” is the concept of <strong>The</strong> Parcville, which is<br />
the joint–venture project of Sun Hung Kai Properties Limited <strong>and</strong> New<br />
World Development Company Limited, in the design stage. Located in<br />
Tung Tau, Yuen Long, <strong>The</strong> Parcville comprises 14 low-density residential<br />
buildings between 13 <strong>and</strong> 15 storeys, containing 1,618 units. <strong>The</strong><br />
development enjoys a view of Mai Po Nature Reserve, <strong>and</strong> a nearby<br />
bauhinia garden offers <strong>The</strong> Parcville’s residents another view of scenic<br />
greenery. <strong>The</strong> development was planned to blend with its natural<br />
surroundings. It includes 20,000 s.m. of l<strong>and</strong>scaping area planted with<br />
about 2,500 trees, making it one of the largest<br />
green housing estates in the area.<br />
Environmental features are integrated<br />
into the building design of <strong>The</strong> Parcville,<br />
including rainwater recycling system,<br />
naturally ventilated semi-enclosed car<br />
park, environmental education pathway,<br />
water saving sanitary fittings, recyclable<br />
waste segregation bins on each floor, solar<br />
powered l<strong>and</strong>scape lighting, etc. As a<br />
consequence of these pioneering initiatives,<br />
<strong>The</strong> Parcville achieved the highest HK-BEAM<br />
(the Hong Kong Building Environmental<br />
Assessment Method) rating of Excellent<br />
upon building completion in 2002, the first<br />
residential premises to accomplish this level of<br />
environmental performance.<br />
As the first eco-friendly residential estate in Hong Kong, we have<br />
adopted many energy conservation design features such as :<br />
heat pump (indoor swimming pool <strong>and</strong> air-conditioning), natural<br />
ventilated carpark, natural lighting at clubhouse, VVV-F type lift, VRV,<br />
energy saving household appliances, solar lamps, wind turbine,<br />
“soft starter”, timer switches, <strong>and</strong> frame for solar energy receiver<br />
panel etc.. Through continuous reduction in energy consumption,<br />
our carbon footprint is also reduced <strong>and</strong> therefore minimised the<br />
urban heat isl<strong>and</strong> impact.<br />
