The Ma Tau Kok Animal Quarantine Depot is the only pre-war cattle slaughterhouse left in the city. Built in 1908, its use ended in 1999 and a revitalization project turned the facility into an artists' village.













The 13 Streets neighbourhood is distinct with animals being part of each street's name. The decrepit buildings were originally built in 1958-1961 and is now home to a vibrant South Asian community thanks to its affordable rents. Next to it is a similarly decrepit area known as the 5 Streets, which include both industrial and residential buildings leading up to the waterfront.
