Long Ching Estate (Chinese: 朗晴邨) is a public housing estate in Yuen Long, New Territories, Hong Kong, near Tai Kiu Tsuen and within walking distance to MTR Long Ping station.[2] It consists of two residential blocks completed in 2016.
History
Long Ching Estate was formerly the site of Yuen Long Estate, which had five buildings and was demolished in 2001.[3] Originally, the Housing Authority planned to build three 32-storey blocks on the land. However, the Yuen Long District Council believed the land should be privately developed to boost the local economy. The government eventually divided the land in two, offering part of the site for private development of Yuccie Square.[4]
