More than 80 creative designs for the Central waterfront went on public display yesterday at the Star Ferry pier in Central.
The displays are entries in a design competition that will play a part in the public consultation on the new waterfront.
Secretary for Development Carrie Lam Cheng Yuet-ngor presided over the opening ceremony with other dignitaries present.
Mrs Lam said she welcomed the design competition as a complement to the government's work.
After taking a quick glimpse at the displays, she judged that some plans might not be feasible, saying they would require further reclamation work.
The exhibition, organised by Designing Hong Kong, attracted dozens of entries from international and local architects.
The display at the pier will run until September 28.
