Mei Foo Station
Mei Foo is a Hong Kong MTR station located in Mei Foo Sun Chuen, Lai Chi Kok, New Kowloon. It is an interchange station between the Tsuen Wan Line and the West Rail Line, situated between Lai Chi Kok and Lai King stations on the Tsuen Wan Line and Nam Cheong Station and Tsuen Wan West stations on the West Rail Line. Mei Foo Station's livery is blue.
The Tsuen Wan Line part of the station is a simple through station with a central island platform, located under Mount Sterling Mall, a pedestrian-only street between the rows of residential buildings in the Mei Foo Sun Chuen housing estate. The station is designed to facilitate transport needs of the residents of Mei Foo Sun Chuen housing estate, which has nearly 100 buildings and several schools, and the point of transfer between the Kowloon urban area and the new town of Tsuen Wan. If there is heavy traffic on the main road into urban Kowloon, the Kwai Chung Road, many commuters get off their buses and use this station as their link to Kowloon and Central on Hong Kong Island.
==History==
The station's original name was Lai Chi Kok during the planning stage, but upon its opening in 1982 the station was called "Lai Wan"〔Yu, Pui-kwan, Robin, ("A study on quasi-public space in large scale private residential development, case in Hong Kong" ), p. 28, University of Hong Kong, 2007〕 (荔灣, meaning ''Lai'' Chi Kok ''Bay''), and was renamed to its current name in 1985.
The West Rail Line (then known as KCR West Rail) part of the station was opened on 20 December 2003 along with the rail line. The station is located in the middle of Lai Chi Kok Park, slightly to the west of the Tsuen Wan Line's part of the station. The scenery of the park was greatly destroyed during the construction of the station, but the park was subsequently rebuilt over the station complex. The Tsuen Wan Line and West Rail Line stations merged into one station on 2 December 2007 in the MTR-KCR merger. Architecture firm Aedas designed Mei Foo Station.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Designers transfer Hong Kong know-how to Dubai's new metro )〕
