The site was originally just wasteland, but during the building rush of the 1970s thousands of densely packed residential units were erected there. However, because of the poor quality of the construction, many units went unsold and many others were eventually abandoned by their owners, leaving the site with little but derelict concrete shells.
該地原本是一片荒地，1970 年代在搶建潮中建起數千戶集合式住宅，但因品質低劣導致空屋廢棄、居民遷離，很快淪為三不管的荒城。
