In the early 1860s, the Hong Kong government intended to develop Tsim Sha Tsui as military land, and the villagers originally living in Tsim Sha Tau Village and Tsim Sha Mei Village were therefore arranged to move to Yau Ma Tei.
In 1865 the Tin Hau Temple was built at Second Street in Yau Ma Tei (now Pak Hoi Street); in 1876 it was relocated to its present site on Temple Street, alongside which were built a kung sor, a Fuk Tak Chi and two study halls, combining worship, arbitration and teaching purposes.
In 1890, the British engineer Chadwick was appointed by the Hong Kong government to plan and construct the Kowloon water supply system in Yau Ma Tei, the water source of which was drawn entirely from groundwater.
In 1895 the Hong Kong government set up a pumping station at Yau Ma Tei to pump water stored in a reservoir to a service reservoir on the hillside east of the area.
The water supply system collected groundwater from the Ho Man Tin area and three valleys north of Yau Ma Tei, and then conveyed it to three groundwater wells.
Water for residents of the Kowloon Peninsula was supplied by sending groundwater through the Yau Ma Tei clear water tank to the Yau Ma Tei and Hung Hom service reservoirs.
