The Urban Renewal Authority (URA) was established under the Urban Renewal Authority Ordinance (URAO) in May 2001 to replace the Land Development Corporation as the statutory body to undertake, encourage, promote and facilitate the regeneration of the older urban areas of Hong Kong. Under the 2011 Urban Renewal Strategy, the URA adopts a 'people first, district-based, public participatory' approach in its core businesses, 'Redevelopment' and 'Rehabilitation'. Through urban renewal initiatives, the URA aims at creating high quality and vibrant urban living in Hong Kong.
