History
Lok Fu Estate was formerly the Lo Fu Ngam Resettlement Area (Template:Zh) and has a total of 23 blocks, 12 Mark I type and 11 Mark II type, built in 1957.[2] As local residents found the name Lo Fu Ngam (Tiger Hill) inauspicious, the settlement was later renamed to Lok Fu (happy and prosperous).[3] A former shrine at the site was moved to a new location in Kwun Tong, which is now within the Tsui Ping Estate.[4] In 1973, the area was renamed the Lok Fu Estate.[5] It started rehabilitation and redevelopment in the 1980s. In 1991, the six blocks in the nearby Wang Tau Hom Estate were allocated to the Lok Fu Estate.[6]
