KOWLOON SKYSCRAPER

City of anarchy, the area´s interconnected high-rise towers were built without architects and engineers, and ungoverned by Hong Kong´s building and sanitation regulations.The street-level shops were a mix of unlicensed dentist and doctors, market stall and cafes.
There were several schools and kindergartens. Police could only arrest non-residents.Despite its daunting squalid appearance and reputation for lawlessness, many kowloon walled city´s former residents remember it fondly. It may have been the city of darkness to outsiders, but to thousands who called it home, it was a friendly tight-knit community that was poor but generally happy.
The kwc skycraper project dispose ex-kowloon citizens at the same land but on a new organisational multiuse high space.
