[edit] History
Homi Villa, was built by a private developer, Jehangir H. Ruttonjee, in the early 1930s. It was later bought by the Hong Kong Government and used as staff quarters for British army officers.
The facade of the old building has been restored and the building now houses the Airport Core Programme Exhibition Centre [1].
[edit] Facilities
There are 5 exhibition areas, displaying models, photos and descriptions of the 10 airport-related projects to give a full picture of the entire construction project of the Hong Kong International Airport.
Permanently mounted rooftop binoculars are available for visitors to view Tsing Ma Bridge which links Tsing Yi Island on the east to Ma Wan island on the west over Ma Wan Channel. It is part of the Lantau Link, which, with three long span bridges links the New Territories and Chek Lap Kok, where the Hong Kong International Airport is located.
