Mei Foo Sun Chuen or simply Mei Foo () is a large private housing estate in Lai Chi Kok, Kowloon, Hong Kong. Mei Foo Sun Chuen was the first private housing estate in Hong Kong and at the time of completion, the 99 tower complex was considered the largest private housing development in the world,〔 accommodating some 70,000 – 80,000 people in 13,500 apartments.〔
==History==
Mei Foo Sun Chuen was built in eight stages〔 from 1968 to 1978 on the reclamation formerly used for petroleum storage by Mobil (now part of ExxonMobil) in Hong Kong (Mobil's Chinese trading name in Hong Kong is ; Mei Foo). The development was conducted by Mei Foo Investments Limited, a subsidiary company of Mobil Oil (Hong Kong) Limited.〔
At the time of building, the government was tackling the serious squatter hut problem by constructing public resettlement estates for citizens without homes (especially those displaced by the Shek Kip Mei fire). Mei Foo Sun Chuen was conceived to meet the housing needs of Hong Kong's middle-income families, an emerging and growing group at the time.〔Chan, Chi-kau, Johnnie Casire, ("Community development and management of private sector housing estates in Hong Kong" ), University of Hong Kong, August 1995〕 At the time, a flat in Mei Foo cost around HK$40,000.
