Newscopy: "The first good housing ever to be built in Chinatown will rise here, when these ancient structures--many of which withstood the earthquake--disappear. By early 1952, the Ping Yuen housing development will provide modern, pleasant apartments, and plenty of garden and play space for 234 low-income families. The six-story buildings will carry out the Chinese motif in design."
