Chak On Estate

Public housing estates in Shek Kip Mei are public housing in an area originally known as Kap Shek Mi in New Kowloon on the North Eastern Kowloon Peninsula of Hong Kong.

Hong Kong's public housing program was initiated by Governor Alexander Grantham following a major fire on 25 December 1953. The Shek Kip Mei area was the location of tens of thousands of makeshift homes of immigrants from Mainland China. The fire cost many lives, and left 53,000 people homeless.

The public housing program introduced "multi story building" with fire- and flood-proof construction. The clearance of the fire debris and demolition of the remaining makeshift houses paved the way for construction of the Shek Kip Mei Low-cost Housing Estate (石硤尾廉租屋邨).
