The “Giant Water Pipe” was once an iconic plaything at the playground in Kwun Tong Garden Estate, where many children climbed up and down after school. Many grown-up residents still cherish these memories.

Corridors used to be a gathering place for residents, fostering closer neighbourhood. In the past, some housewives would chat in the corridors and make handicrafts to support their families while children rode tricycles for fun.

Neighbours often stopped to chat when they saw each other downstairs or behind the teahouse. Housing estates were full of warmth and ideal for fostering lifetime bonds.

For over half a century, the basketball court in Kwun Tong Garden Estate has served as a space for young people to engage in physical activities and embrace their youth. It is a place where laughter, friendship, and dreams converge.

They say a happy childhood creates lasting memories. Do you recall the stone slide at Pak Ling Lau? Can you recognise your buddies from those days at the playground?
