Laguna Verde (Hong Kong)
Laguna Verde (Chinese: 海逸豪園) is a private housing estate developed by Cheung Kong Holdings in northeastern Hung Hom, Kowloon, Hong Kong. It consists of 25 residential towers.
Laguna Mall
There is a small shopping centre/office building nearby named The Laguna Mall, that was previously named Fishermen's Wharf. The Office of CLP (China Light Power) is located at the second and third floors of the shopping centre.
On the first floor are mainly tutorial centers and a restaurant named Laguna Palace which attracts a lot of Mainland Chinese tourists. Tutorial Centers like Eye Level and Mathnasium are opened on the first floor. There are lower and upper ground floors. The Upper Ground Floor consists of few restaurants such as: UCC Coffee Shop, Taste King, McDonald's and SD Cafe. The Lower Ground Floor consists of a small shop of Circle K, Cafe de Coral and ParknShop (recently converted to a Fusion shop). Basement Level 2 and 3 is combined with the basement levels of the apartments.
Laguna Mall was purchased by CLP Group in 2016. The group is now gathering residents' suggestions to improve and renew the mall, in order to attract more people to visit. Yet, the idea of mall renewal has received negative feedback from the residents of Laguna Verde.
