華富邨是首個以新城市概念建造的公共屋邨,其基礎設施包括學校、街市、飯店和銀行。
華富擁有香港第一個屋邨的公共圖書館,這是繼大會堂之後的第二座公共圖書館。它還有公共屋邨內第一個老人院和第一個停車場。
華富指富裕的華人,有5萬多居民。它於1968年完工,在1967暴動後為本地人提供廉租住房,顯著改善社會福利。
Wah Fu Estate was the first public housing estate built with a township concept, with infrastructures including schools, grocery stores, restaurants and banks. Wah Fu has Hong Kong’s first public library in a housing estate – the second public library after the one at the City Hall. It also has the first elderly home and first car park inside a public housing estate.
Wah Fu means wealthy Chinese and is home to more than 50,000 residents. It was completed in the 1968 to provide locals with affordable housing with significantly improved social welfare in the wake of the 1967 riots.
