It is closely related to reclamation and urban development. In 1980s, the governments of China and Hongkong began to carry out large-scale reclamation projects to solve the problem of urban land shortage. The location of King Lake was originally a sea area near the sea in Yau Tsim Mong District. After reclamation, it became land. After the completion of the reclamation project, the China Hong Kong government planned this land as a residential area and a commercial area, which attracted many real estate developers and investors to develop it.
