 Kwun Tong Line (MTR) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Kwun Tong Line was the rail line using that tunnel and on 6 August 1989, it was extended over the harbour again.
As part of the Tseung Kwan O Line project, Kwun Tong line was briefly extended to North Point on 27 September 2001 but soon diverted to Tiu Keng Leng when the Tseung Kwan O Line opened in August, 2002.
The diversion was done in two phases: Yau Tong interchange station was opened on 4 August 2002 such that Kwun Tong Line did not cross the harbour anymore.

 Amazon.com: Kowloon Tong: Books: Paul Theroux   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-04)
Paul Theroux's Kowloon Tong (meaning nine-dragon pond, a district in Hong Kong) is a novel of Hong Kong on the verge of the 1997 handover.
Written against the historical backdrop of handing a free Chinese city back to a totalitarian Chinese state, Kowloon Tong is far less glittering from the inevitably rip-roaring story for the global media, it is a piece of cobbled (opportunistic, maybe) fiction.
The plot of Kowloon Tong is loose and although the novel is thankfully short, Theroux seems to anticipate his reader's ennui with the whole concept well before the middle of the book.

 PaulTheroux.com {} Fiction {} Kowloon Tong
For Neville "Bunt" Mullard and his mother, Betty, Hong Kong is part of Britain -- one of the pleasanter parts; it is also cozy, monotonous, proftable and homely.
It is big breakfasts and high tea and bad weather, the race meetings at Happy Valley, the roast beef at Fatty's Chophouse, and, for Bunt, the "blue hotels" of Kowloon Tong, where he eats his packed lunches and sometimes rents a room by the hour with a girl.
With incisively observed characters and perfect prose, in Kowloon Tong Paul Theroux has created one of his finest novels.

Kowloon (九龍, "nine dragons" in Cantonese) is the peninsula to the north of Hong Kong Island.
It lacks some of the glamour of the Island, but makes up for it with unmatched and distinctly Chinese vibrancy: Kowloon is by some measures the most densely populated place on the planet, and has a matching array of places to shop, eat and sleep.
Decently located four-star hotel just off the Kowloon waterfront, but it's about 8 minutes on foot to the nearest MTR station and the rooms are not quite as opulent as the lobby.

Robert Ng, chairman of Sino Land, which won the bid for the Kowloon Tong site, said after the auction he takes a bullish view on the prospects of the local property market.
He said Sino Land plans to invest some 3 bln hkd in the development of a luxury residential project on the Kowloon Tong site, with luxury apartments in the area likely to be priced at levels significantly higher than the prevailing 14,800 per sq ft at Mount Beacon, a luxury residential project in the district.
Supply of luxury apartments in traditional luxury residential districts, such as Kowloon Tong and the Peak, is limited while demand remains robust as more and more multinational companies set up offices in Hong Kong and take up luxury apartments for their senior officials.
