Kowloon Walled City ParkThey lived in small rooms stacked on top of each other, and the stories increased to about 11 or 14 stories. It couldn’t grow higher than that because there was an airport nearby and the Hong Kong government forbad taller construction. It is said that most of the people made a living in factories or businesses in the town or outside, and that people who could move out did so, so the city had a disproportionate number of old or sick women and men.However, somehow the town kept growing until people were evicted and the town demolished during the late 1980s and early 1990s. The bottom stories received no natural light. Gangs thrived to some extent until the 1970s when police raids and the opposition of people in the city stopped a lot of the crime.
