Amoy put the site up for auction in March 1977, intending to move their manufacturing operations elsewhere in stages. The auction failed as the reserve price was not reached. Subsequently, Hang Lung Development signed an agreement to purchase the site in April 1977 for about HK$200 million. Under the agreement, Amoy would take a share of the profits from the site’s redevelopment.”

W – History | Development
The site was purchased by Amoy Canning in the 1920s for use as a factory.[3] Amoy put the site of approximately 222,560 square feet (20,677 m2) up for auction in March 1977, intending to move their manufacturing operations elsewhere in stages. The auction failed as the reserve price was not reached. Subsequently, Hang Lung Development signed an agreement to purchase the site in April 1977 for about HK$200 million. Under the agreement, Amoy would take a share of the profits from the site’s redevelopment.[4]
The estate was built in four phases. The construction contract for the estate’s first phase, comprising seven residential blocks (blocks A-G) and retail space, was awarded to Hong Kong contractor Shui On Construction on 18 October 1979.[5] The first phase was completed in 1981, while the final phase was completed in 1987.
