Laguna Verde () is a private housing estate developed by Cheung Kong Holdings, located in Tai Wan, Hung Hom, Kowloon, Hong Kong. It consists of 25 residential towers.
Laguna Mall
There is a small shopping centre/office building nearby named The Laguna Mall, that was previously named Fishermen's Wharf. The Office of CLP (China Light Power) is located at the second and third floors of the shopping centre.
On the first floor are mainly tutorial centers. Tutorial Centers like Eye Level and Mathnasium are opened on the first floor. There are lower and upper ground floors. The Upper Ground Floor consists of few restaurants such as: Mister Coffee, Aji Ou Japanese restaurant, McDonald's and SD Cafe. The Lower Ground Floor consists of a Circle K convenience store, a Café de Coral fastfood restaurant that was recently closed down and a ParknShop supermarket (recently converted to Fusion). Basement Levels 2 and 3 are combined with the basement levels of the apartments.
In 2016, the mall was sold to CLP, who planned to use the building for its permanent headquarters. In 2018 they demanded tenants to leave before 2018. Under the plan, CLP would take over the vast majority of the retail space as well as part of the Lagune Verde Clubhouse space which belongs to the residents. Over 5,000 residents signed a petition to oppose the plan.中電重建海逸坊 逼走商戶幼兒園 蘋果日報,2016年6月20日 After that, CLP modified the plan to vastly reduce retail space, leaving only the basement level and proposing sealing off several exits from the public.中電重推改建海逸坊 擬改劃9成面積為辦公室 業委會炮轟罔顧居民利益 蘋果日報 2021年5月27日
