Together with the above-mentioned<br />
23 projects in which majority ownership is<br />
already held, the successful acquisition of<br />
these additional 45 projects will add to the<br />
Group a total of 68 urban redevelopment<br />
projects, with an estimated total attributable<br />
gross floor area of about 7.3 million<br />
square feet.<br />
B. Existing projects<br />
In addition to the above newly-acquired<br />
urban redevelopment projects, the Group<br />
had a total of 9 existing projects under<br />
planning for redevelopment or conversion<br />
into other purposes which would provide<br />
about 1.84 million square feet in attributable<br />
gross floor area for commercial and<br />
residential use in the urban areas. With<br />
approval having been obtained from the<br />
Town Planning Board for the residential<br />
development at the site at 14-30 King Wah<br />
<strong>Road</strong>, North Point, the Group has applied<br />
to the Government for its land-use<br />
conversion. The site is expected to be<br />
developed into twin harbourfront towers<br />
comprising approximately 224,000 square<br />
feet in total residential gross floor area. For<br />
the large-scale residential joint-venture<br />
development project at Yau Tong Bay,<br />
Kowloon, a master layout plan has been<br />
submitted to the Town Planning Board for<br />
review. It is expected that the project will<br />
provide a total developable gross floor area<br />
of approximately 4.4 million square feet, of<br />
which about 810,000 square feet is<br />
attributable to the Group as shown in the<br />
