Not gonna lie, I don’t think that’s enough recreation space for the number of units there.

And I don’t see any commercial space at all. That’s got to be enough units for several thousand people. Like, think about how much store space would be needed to make sure they could get all their groceries.

Yeah, I got that impression as well. Looks heavily overbuilt, with the amenities being more there to attract new residents than to serve the community.

And I don’t see any commercial space at all.

Probably because this is a top down view at the center of a ring of impossibly tall housing units, not a skyline view of Hong Kong, a city that's got commercial spaces from seaside to Shenzhen.

Where you see the tennis courts probably isn’t street level, and the area below is commercial, restaurants and parking.
