- Plan for the development of Kowloon Tong as a high-class residential district for British expatriates in the 1920s. It was situated just north of the boundary between the area of Kowloon ceded to Great Britain in 1860 and the New Territories leased to Britain in 1899. Kowloon Tong was planned as a suburb of garden villas much like an English suburban development of the same period. The street names reflect this intention, using the names of desirable English counties: York, Norfolk, Suffolk, Somerset, Kent, Dorset, Devon and Cornwall.
