    • Abstract:
      The article presents the findings of a research conducted on advancing previous research works which have developed a means to predict adaptive reuse potential (ARP). Under the research, comparison of ARP between urban and non-urban settings drawn from case studies in both Hong Kong, China and Australia was done. The research reveals that the 12 urban cases in Hong Kong have a lower ARP score on average than the 12 non-urban cases in Australia, yet the maximum ARP score possible is higher. It concludes that adaptive reuse intervention in Hong Kong is too late and valuable opportunity for economic, social, and environmental gain is delayed.
