In 1964, the British Hong Kong Government announced that the estate would be named Yau Tong Bay Government Low Cost Estate (Chinese: 油塘灣政府廉租屋邨) (later Ko Chiu Road Government Low Cost Estate, Chinese: 高超道政府廉租屋邨). It consisted of 11 blocks, built between 1971 and 1973. In 1973, the estate was renamed as Ko Chiu Road Estate.[1]
The estate started redevelopment in the 1990s. The redevelopment plan was divided into 5 phases to construct Ko Yee Estate (Phase 1), Ko Chun Court (Phase 2) and Ko Cheung Court (Phase 3).[2][3][4]
