The image depicts the “LAST DAY” of the relocation of “Tai Hang Sai Estate” — one of Hong Kong’s last privately built low-rental estate. Built in the 1960s to house low-income families, the relocation of the Estate was fraught with problems. Many residents there are elderly (over 70), have resided there for decades, and lacked steady income. The Estate was cleared last March to make way for modern residential towers. Some residents would now face homelessness, repeated moves through transitional housing, and the bittersweet process of leaving behind a close-knit community.
