Joseph Tsang, Chairman of JLL in Hong Kong, said: "The property offers redevelopment potential to amalgamate with the adjacent buildings and is destined to stand out from the crowd, making it a remarkably attractive option for developers and investors looking for solid and quality investment or redevelopment opportunities,”

“Located at the heart of Causeway Bay, the properties offers a rare opportunity for developers and investors to secure a substantial ownership share in a sizeable landmark development project in a core area. As it is on a corner plot, it has high retail value and redevelopment potential. The recent tender of the Caroline Hill Road commercial site and enbloc transactions at Percival Street show the high development and investment value of the area. With the two new commercial developments in the district scheduled for completion in the next few years, the Retail Golden Circle at Russell Street, Percival Street, Hysan Avenue, Yun Ping Road and Kai Chiu Road will be benefit from the buzz and excitement brought forth by the even busier scene,” Tsang added.
