其實香港古蹟制度是如何運行?🗿

香港古物與古蹟架構/

「古物及古蹟條例」於一九七六年實施,以確保香港最具價值的文物古蹟得到適當保護。古物諮詢委員會及古物古蹟辦事處於同年相繼成立。[圖3]古物古蹟辦事處的文物保育組由五個小組組成,分別負責考古、 歷史建築、教育及宣傳和技術及顧問,以及策劃及管理方面的工作職能,他們先為古物古蹟作考察研究,[圖4]再將其建議交給由二十一人組成的古物諮詢委員會作討論和決定「歷史建築」和「法定古蹟」,全員由特首委任,來自超過十個界別。決定「法定古蹟」後會提交給古物事務監督(發展局局長),最後經特首同意藉憲報公告宣布法定古蹟,由古物古蹟辦事處執行其行政工作。

The Antiquities and Monuments Ordinance was enforced in 1976 to ensure that the best examples of Hong Kong's monuments are under appropriate protection. In the same year, the Antiquities Advisory Board (AAB) and the Antiquities and Monuments Office (AMO) were established. [Pic3]In AMO, there is a Heritage Conservation Unit with five sections: archaeology, historical buildings, education and publicity, technical and advisory, planning and management. They first conduct research on antiquities and historic sites, and then submit their recommendations to the AAB, [Pic4]which is composed of 21 people for discussion and decision on "historical buildings" and "declared monuments”. All 21 members are all appointed by the chief executive and come from more than 10 industries and professions. After the decision is made, it will be submitted to the Antiquities Authority (Secretary for Development), and the Chief Executive will announce the official monuments through a gazette announcement, which will be implemented by the AMO.

新自由主義:(一)旺角天橋建二十一年背後的反思:市場化的公共建築
延期完工二十一年、連接旺角道與彌敦道的天橋終於完成,有網民笑說「羅馬鬥獸場只花了十年時間興建」,究竟一條只有一百米的天橋如何能夠拖足二十年? 新自由主義: 政府將建造的基建責任轉向私人發展商/ 你應該會感到困惑,為何一條公共行人天橋會交由新鴻基去出資、設計和建造?首先讓我們先了解天橋背後的公共政策。新自由主義可以被理解為市場化傾向的公共政策,而在香港的體現有很多方式,以下是其中幾個: 1️⃣鼓勵發展商提供「私有化公共空間」[註1],由政府提出給予發展商更多建造面積,換取所謂的「公共空間」。 斥資方:發展商 建造方:發展商 管理方:發展商 例子: 時代廣場、新城市廣場露天平台 2️⃣由政府與發展商磋商興建天橋、公共交通交匯處等基建,由發展商管理,並可獲額外建造面積。 斥資方:發展商 建造方:發展商 管理方:發展商 例子:中環天橋系統、裕民坊公共交通交匯處 3️⃣政府將公共建築項目以public-private partnership (公私營合作)方式向發展商招標,被稱為「社區工程」。 斥資方:發展商or 政府 建造方:發展商 管理方:發展商 or 政府 例子:西隧、星光大道 對政府的好處可能是:無需為基建承擔公共開支、日後的管理責任(視乎情況而定)、其他風險。並借助私人發展商的建造效率和質素提供足夠的基建供應。 市場化後的公共建築/ 回到旺角行人天橋,政府原意是想舒緩旺角街道人車爭路的問題,將整個天橋網絡交由新鴻基斥資建造,再交由政府管理。以他們持有的新世記廣場作為起點,連接到剛完成的旺角道段。天橋全程數分鐘路程,既方便了市民,發展商又可能換取到更多建造面積,吸引人流到商場裡。 公共建築原由政府興建,如工程延期,牽涉公帑,或需再經立法會審批,公眾尚存在監察權。即使由政府斥資再向私人發展商招標,或尚有周旋的空間。但今次整項工程由私人發展商斥資和建造,公眾無從中干預,而政府的角色是十分被動,亦更難以追究延期賠償,因延期只涉及工程費用脹價,不論政府或私人發展商興建也未必需要為延期作出保償。 「新自由主義」下的市場化公共政策,由基建到整個城市構劃發展,甚至建築保育像中環街市[註2]都有著深遠影響,下回再續! 如有錯漏,敬請指正🙆🏻‍♂️ [註1] 私有公共空間 [註2] 港式保育後的中環街市 攝: 楊嘉朗(旺角天橋) 延伸閱讀: 1.Defying Disappearance: Cosmopolitan Public Spaces in Hong Kong, Lisa Law 2.

現在經過屋邨商場你還會願意流連嗎?
建築與地方🏘 現在經過屋邨商場你還會願意流連嗎?⛲️Gorgeous Mall or Neighbourhood Centre? Illustration by: @donfo.lio 城市客廳/ 你還記得小時候在屋邨商場打發時間的回憶嗎?香港在50年代開始興建大量高層的公共房屋以應付大量的人口增長。以規劃角度來說,要在地面上建造足夠的社區空間去滿足幾座、幾十層居民是十分困難的。於是你便會發現許多公園、社福機構、廣場穿插於屋邨商場裡,成為了商場的一部份。與現今商場的建造目的不同,屋邨商場除了有快餐店、士多、雜貨店讓居民購物用餐,有著照顧社區的功能。同時,因為無需要達到龐大的商業價值和利潤,屋邨商場的設計十分多元化,令它變得不只是一個賺錢的盒子。 只有商業價值/ 但你會否發現這種模式的屋邨商場買少見少?因為03年時面對沙士導致經濟衰退,政府為了開源節流,將原先由房委會擁有和管理的屋邨商場出售給領展 (原名領匯)。以價高者得的商業原則下,較低利潤的士多、雜貨店搬走,一些高檔次及奢侈品的商舖隨之進駐,租金跟隨上調。通過翻新商場,以此為由加租,亦為了讓商場保持新鮮感,更會要求商戶每隔幾年調鋪一次。休憩空間的元素因沒有商業價值而相應被移取。的確,翻新了的商場設計觀感有了很大的改善,但卻失去了我們流連在此的原因。 Urban Living Room/ Recalling the fading memories of my childhood, estate shopping centres used to be one of my favourite places to wander around. In the 1950s, to support the rapid population growth, the government decided to build a large number of high-rise public housings. Some of the estate shopping centres are combined with parks, social welfare institutions and open plaza.The purposes of estate shopping centres are not only to provide restaurants and shops but more importantly, also to cater to the needs and desires of the local microcosm. Moreover, as commercial value is not the only concern, it is something more than just a profit-making machine which brings the design of an estate shopping centre has more opportunity and diversity. Commercial Purpose Only/ Unfortunately, the purpose of being a community centres is coming to an end. Before 2003, most of the estate shopping centres were initially being managed by the Housing Authority, the government has sold the majority of estate shopping centres to a real estate developer to recover recession from SARS, Under the principle of the highest bidder wins, with the rent increases accordingly, numerous small local shops and grocery stores are now replaced by high-profit luxury shops and all kinds of chain stores. Besides, some merchants are required to refurbish or relocate their shops every few years to maintain a fresh look. Eventually, commercial value has become the only priority, and the elements of being the open space are removed. They look better, but the purpose of staying is lost. #archi_kongcept #我港建築 #kongcept #我港

唐樓(二):唐樓看似平凡,卻反映香港的寫照
唐樓看似平凡,卻反映香港的寫照 🏙Tong Lau may look ordinary but reflecting the portraits of Hong Kong 街道生活/ 唐樓外表的確是本身較平凡,也是基層階級的產物,但是唐樓卻衍生出樓梯鋪、天台屋、街道生活的出現,描寫了更多香港的寫照。底層地鋪多元不同,其商品更延伸到行人路上,街頭擺賣繼而伸展到馬路。這種一層又一層的連繫形成了街頭生活。現有的摩天大樓,因商業考慮而令圖則變得奇形怪狀,只用冷氣解決通風問題,將室外與室內毫無留情地分隔開。但唐樓的設計正方而擁有自然通風的對流窗,而這裡每天發生的不只有行人的流動與商業的交易,而是人與人之間交流是自然和有溫度的。唐樓展現了香港繁華背後的樸素日常的一面。 唐樓背後/ 在這看似繁華的香港出現劏房問題是十分諷刺的,但無奈唐樓仍然是很多基層和年輕人的經濟選擇。很多人在唐樓的地鋪裡創業,也很多人不介意住在「唐八樓」「唐九樓」,只求一個居住的地方,為了生存,為了未來的生活。雖然城市發展是無法避免的,但一個城市也需要多元化的面貌,唐樓正是其中一面。 _____________________________________________ Street Life/ Although Tong Lau may look ordinary and is the representative of the lower social class, the emergence of Tong Lau also introduced the staircase store, roof housing and street life that narrated different moments of Hong Kong. Diverse types of ground-floor-stores extended to the pedestrian lane and attracted hawkers to operate nearby. The layering linked moments are the street life that is needed in Hong Kong. The current skyscrapers design that is emphasising the position of economic concern results in irregular forms of buildings using a.c. to resolve every ventilation problem. Indoor and outdoor spaces are mercilessly separated. On the other hand, Tong Lau, by using opposite openings for natural ventilation, is designed to be in regular forms. It is about the emotional interaction between people, rather than some senseless pedestrian and money flow. Behind the Scene/ Tong Lau embodied the simple and daily faces behind the bustling of Hong Kong. The subdivided flat problem inside Tong Lau still exists nowadays, which is ironic for it to happen in such a wealthy city. However, it is still a popular choice for lower social class and youngsters as a survival from and start-up of life. They do not mind living on the eighth or ninth floor without a lift, they just want to survive and hopefully can live a life in the future. We shall admit that it is unrealistic to avoid city development, but please do not ignore the many other faces of the city, that realistically exist, Tong Lau.

皇都戲院: (二) 保留皇都形與神的保育方案!
皇都第二回! 保留皇都形與神的保育方案!⚒🎭 我港分享了各種被遺忘和值得保育的香港文化,但今次不再紙上談兵,而是為保育一級歷史建築-皇都戲院-略盡綿力。新世界投得皇都戲院後,承諾形神俱備地讓皇都戲院重生,而旗下非牟利機構 @culturefortomorrow 最近籌辦了名為《尋找你我他的皇都》的代入式歷史體驗活動,作為是次計畫的序章。皇都戲院有多方面的價值:推動香港文化產業、劃時代的建築技術、和香港的生存印證。上次我港介紹了關於皇都對香港文娛發展的深遠影響(註1),今次會著墨更多在其建築和空間之關係的介紹。 被忽視的現代主義建築/ 在繼續介紹皇都之前,先讓我說說皇都代表的現代主義建築。它們既沒有古典主義的羅馬柱,又沒有現代玻璃大廈的未來感,而當時現代主義多以建築功能作設計的首先考慮,因此被很多人覺得它們都只是平平無奇的水泥建築。但其實好的現代主義建築能透過外牆與其建築功能分佈的協調,透過規律的線條散發著含蓄而冷靜的美感。而現代主義建築記錄香港戰後的殖民地歷史,從其設計能找到香港當時的生活模式、社會狀況、甚至政治意圖。例如上回介紹的順利邨商場般(註2)的粗獷主義建築是內藏當時港英政府戰後更新國家形象的意圖。 香港獨有的現代主義演釋 - 皇都/ 當然,不是所有現代主義建築都擁有同等的價值,而最直接的量度好壞的方法是看設計背後的意圖和美學考慮的多寡。從整體設計來看,皇都戲院像是個反叛的孩子,與當時建造的戲院手法毫不相近, 建築師劉新科及工程師George. W. Grey 巧妙利用了外露的飛拱水泥鋼根結構,一個個規律的圓拱告訴你他們抓著的戲院究竟有多大。飛拱令戲院無需支柱支撐,提升了視覺和聽覺的質素。中大建築學教授鍾宏亮Thomas Chung更認為這設計是受著名現代主義建築師 Le Corbusier 的蘇維埃宮殿設計所啟發。 🎬🛍️戲院與商場的結合/ 但令我最印象深刻是原為停車場改建而成的商場,這可能是該年代香港少數集住宅、戲院、和商場於一身的建築。商場巧妙地利用上方戲院座位的高度差創造了與典型商場不同的商業空間。當你處身於商場內的走廊上,不難發覺每隔一段路就有樓梯向上或下行,商鋪高度也跟住坡道改變,十分有趣。而鋪頭的招牌和鋪頭外的信箱形造出街鋪。我曾探訪過停業前的皇都商場,看到一位店主的愛妻在鋪外埋頭苦幹做飯的畫面(註3),商場環境好比一個小社區。 未來的活化計劃是將會重用戲院部份作表演空間,這是十分令人鼓舞的消息。有別於大館或PMQ等活化都將原建築功能改為文化空間,皇都戲院能夠將其背負著的那段輝煌的香港娛樂文化歷史帶到現在,為本地藝術工作者提供表演場地,這令此建築具更深的意義。過往很多現代主義建築都逃不過清拆的命運,例如政府帶頭清拆的皇后碼頭、舊政府總部、中環郵局總部等,皇都得以保留值得我們感到欣慰,我港寄望借它來告訴大眾,不少看現代主義建築的美!

香港古蹟:鐘樓迎來首鳴一百週紀念,你知道為何要興建鐘樓嗎
尖沙咀鐘樓迎來首鳴一百週紀念,你又知不知為何當初會在這裡興建鐘樓? 其實這鐘樓原名為九廣鐵路鐘樓,鐘樓隔離本來是建於第一次世界大戰前的尖沙咀火車站(現址香港文化中心)。它其實是為該火車報時用的,除了日佔時段,它一直默默為火車站服務,一直到1950年因馬達零件問題而停止轉動。可惜的是以紅磚和花崗岩建成的火車站因紅磡搬遷計劃而清拆。當時的古蹟學會曾收集15000個簽名向英女王請願要求保留火車站建築,但最後郤是無疾而終。 今天的鐘樓只剩下象徵意義,火車站原有的幾條羅馬柱被移到市政局百週年紀念公園卻無人問津。今晚六點,鐘樓會再次響起,提醒我們,不要再讓自己珍重的事物消失。 The clock tower in Tsim Sha Tsui is celebrating its 100th anniversary. Do you know why the clock tower was built here in the first place? This clock tower was originally called the Kowloon-Canton Railway Clock Tower. The clock tower was originally built for the Tsim Sha Tsui Railway Station, before the First World War. The clock tower was actually used for the train's timekeeping. The service was stopped in 1950 due to a problem with motor parts. It is a pity that the railway station built of red brick and granite was demolished due to the Hung Hom relocation plan. At that time, the Antiquities Society collected 15,000 signatures and petitioned the Queen of England to keep the railway station building, but in the end it was nothing. Today’s clock tower only has symbolic meaning. The original Roman columns of the railway station were moved to the Centennial Park of the Municipal Council but no one cares about it. Tonight, at six o'clock, the clock tower will ring again, reminding us not to let the things we cherish disappear. #我港 #kongcept #香港文化 #hkculture #自己香港自己救 #ฮ่องกง #홍콩 #hongkonger #hkig #insidehongkong #hkculture #hongkongmoment #hkdaily #capturehongkong #尖沙咀鐘樓 #hkclocktower

轉角唐樓: (二) 蘊藏在唐樓背後的是未被利用的歷史文化價值🗿
蘊藏在唐樓背後的是未被利用的歷史文化價值🗿 比利時義品公司/ 轉角唐樓與比利時地產公司其實有莫大關係。19世紀的比利時是歐洲工業革命中發展得較蓬勃的國家。有別於其他歐洲大國積極擴展軍事及殖民地,比利時郤側重於資金、工業及學術出口到全世界。這造就了比利時義品公司在香港的出現。比利時義品公司在香港的生意主要在房地產投資、建築設計、施工作業、抵押貸款到物業管理,可算是一條龍服務。公司的總部在布魯塞爾,支部都由比利時人領導,但都需要華人在港管理。而他們的建築師大多來自比利時,不但引入現代摩登主義的設計,還因應香港的地貌與天氣,生產出具香港特色的轉角唐樓。很多轉角唐樓因應香港熱帶天氣而設計露天的走廊,作為室外與室內的緩衝空間。你更可以從圍欄通花找到裝飾藝術的足跡。范威利克出任當時的總負責人,是其中一個具影響力的建築師帶領著裝飾藝術到摩登主義的過渡。 瀕臨絕種/ 唐樓的起源在港島,但轉角唐樓的起源則在九龍。他象徵了當時香港的城市發展,摩登的轉角建築塑造了中產階層的社區。現在香港只剩下九座戰前的轉角唐樓,而青山道301,303號因遲遲未被評為歷史建築,而面臨被清拆的命運。現今被活化保留的轉角唐樓只有改造成中醫學院的雷生春及剛翻新的為群公寓。 的確,要將唐樓的商業價值提高至摩天大樓般是沒有可能的。但如果我們將商業與文化價值去看,活化唐樓群組不但保留社區特色,更可以打造成特色景點,商業與文化價值也能相輔相成。香港,這個地方有著世界級的商業中心,背後其實還有更大的建築資源等待被好好利用。但在經濟效益主導的世道下,究竟我們能否運用建築價值去記錄和分享其年代的故事? Who is Crédit foncier d'Extrême-Orient (CFEO)/ Corner Tong Lau had a relationship with some of the Belgium developers. In the 19th century, Belgium attained substantial development from industrial revolution. Belgium based companies such as the Crédit foncier d'Extrême-Orient(CFEO) expanded to Hong Kong with Belgian-styles development investment, architectural design, construction work, mortgage service, and property management. Moreover, through localisation, corner Tong Lau was designed in response to the geographical and climate context in HK. Gabriel Van Wylick was the office head in Hong Kong, he was one of the influential architects who led the transition from Art Deco to the modernism age. Endangered/ Tong Lau's emergence was in Hong Kong Island, but Tong Lau first appeared in Kowloon. It emblemed the city development of Hong Kong in a particular period. Even though looking at the significance of Castle Park Road 301-303, it cannot escape from the destiny of demolition that it still has not been graded as a historical building. When we take community and cultural value into consideration, the assembly of different preserved historic buildings can be the hero. It can protect the community's unique character while accelerating the cultural and commercial value of that area. At the age of economic dominance, are there opportunities left for architecture to record n share stories of this city? #archi_kongcept

樂華邨商場: 中式亭園與現代主義的結合
⛩中式亭園與現代主義的結合/ 樂華邨商場是單棟的商業建築,它通過懸挑的屋頂連接各個屋苑平台和公共空間。 由巴士總站出發,你的視線會先被屋頂上的鮮色圖案吸引, 這裏是老年人休息或居民等待巴士的地方。然後經過拱形走廊,一直到懸臂屋頂覆蓋著的公共空間,這裡的空間被分成兩部份,上半部份主要通往不同的屋苑,下半部份為綠化的休憩空間。 最後你可以隨意選擇從任何位置進入商業建築,並通過圍繞著建築的扶手梯或樓梯穿梭不同樓層。 建築的形態和顏色體現了樂華邨名稱的含義 - 「快樂中華」。建築師將中國亭園的形態以簡約的現代主義方式呈現,抽象地以桁架、垂直和水平的線條演繹。此外,中式元素貫穿了整個屋邨,由巴士站旁走道頂的紅黃橙色、商業建築的紅色地磚、再到屋苑的粉紅色外牆。 地區:觀塘 建造年份:1985 屋邨商場類型:庭院式 樓層:3 持有公司:領展 ⛩ Chinese Architecture in Modernist Translation/ Lok Wah Shopping Centre is a single commercial block linking various podiums and open spaces, with a cantilevered roof. The journey starts from the bus terminal; you will reach the first open space that is with a welcoming warm-coloured roof, it is where the elderly take a rest or wait for buses. Then the journey continues by passing through the arch-shaped corridor and down to the two-floors-split open spaces covered by the cantilevered roof. You can then enter the commercial block and circulate around through escalators or staircases. The architectural form and colours embody the meaning of the name ‘’ Lok Wah樂華’’, which means ‘’ joyful Chinese 快樂中華 ’’. The Chinese pavilion form is explicitly abstracted to a modernist translation of planes, angler trusses and columns. They are also coherent to the red floor tiles placed throughout the commercial block.

Indoor and outdoor spaces are mercilessly separated. On the other hand, Tong Lau, by using opposite openings for natural ventilation, is designed to be in regular forms. It is about the emotional interaction between people, rather than some senseless pedestrian and money flow. Behind the Scene/ Tong Lau embodied the simple and daily faces behind the bustling of Hong Kong. The subdivided flat problem inside Tong Lau still exists nowadays, which is ironic for it to happen in such a wealthy city. However, it is still a popular choice for lower social class and youngsters as a survival from and start-up of life. They do not mind living on the eighth or ninth floor without a lift, they just want to survive and hopefully can live a life in the future. We shall admit that it is unrealistic to avoid city development, but please do not ignore the many other faces of the city, that realistically exist, Tong Lau.

建築師只設計建築,但地方是由你湊建
Countdown 1️⃣!!!! 建築師只設計建築,但地方是由你湊建 🏘Architects design buildings, but you build your own places 如果你在google搜尋香港的照片,十居其九都會看到俯瞰維港一帶高樓的照片,這不止告訴著你香港的繁華,也能讓你驚歎著每棟樓亂中有序地拼湊出香港這個地方,但這真的是香港全貌嗎?香港人每天為了擁有一個住的地方而打拼,由那些在唐樓劏房逆境求存的日子,或經過那些年的屋邨生活,到終於上到私樓,卻被困在無盡的商場裡。這些畫面大概才是香港的真實寫照吧。「建築與地方」會介紹一些穿插在這城市並記錄著香港的日常建築和充滿故事性的地方,希望能夠藉著此去探索這些空間與我們的關係和他們存在的價值。 ___________________________________________ When you try to google the images of ‘’Hong Kong ‘’, you can find a bunch of photographs with a overlooking view of the Victoria Harbour and stunning skyscrapers. It projects Hong Kong as a bustling city and impresses you by the buildings' order from chaos. However, is it really the full picture of Hong Kong? Hong Kongers are fighting for a home to live every day: From the struggle of survival at subdivided flat inide Tong Lau to the good old days in public housing neighbourhood, and to finally owning a dream house but trapped among identical shopping malls. These are the cruel reality of Hong Kong. The category ‘’Architecture and places’’ includes the introduction of buildings and places that recorded every moment of our living in this city. We wish to reveal the values and relationships between them and us and every one of you are part of the story. . 📷 @mr_nkf . #我港 #koncept #我港建築 #archi_kongcept #hkarchitecture #hkplaces #concretejungle #subdividedflat #hkneighbourhood #香港建築 #香港地方 #石屎森林 #劏房 #香港屋邨
