This book investigates what the history of Hong Kong's urban
development has to teach other cities as they face environmental
challenges, social and demographic change and the need for new
models of dense urbanism. The authors describe how the high-rise
intensity of Hong Kong came about; how the forest of towers are in
fact vertical culs de sac; and how the city might become truly
'volumetric' with mixed activities through multiple levels and 3D
movement networks incorporating 'town cubes' rather than town
squares. For more information, visit the authors' website:
