About
Quarryside
Operated by St. James’ Settlement, “Quarryside” (舍區) is a harbourfront community space project near Hoi Shin Lane in Quarry Bay through the concerted efforts amongst the Government, NGO and the private sector.
The project received support from the Development Bureau’s “Funding Scheme to Support the Use of Vacant Government Sites by Non-government Organisations”, which approved a HKD60 million grant for the construction of the project. Swire Properties, as the Supporting Partner of the project, provides consultancy support for the design, construction and operation of the community space.
St. James’ Settlement received a HKD15 million sponsorship from the Swire Trust to operate the space and organise a series of public programmes, with strategic focuses on Creative Place-making, Creative Health and Creative Sustainability to cultivate a creative, healthy and sustainable community.
