New Central Police Station, Hong Kong

It's a couple of years late but the edges of the New Central Police Station are finally being unveiled.  

We're excited because it's designed by one of our favourite architects- Herzog and De Meuron.   


Here it is, rising above Arbuthnot Road. 

The original site housed a prison, police station and a Magistrates' Court.  It is now being turned into an Arts and Retail precinct.  We've been contacted about getting retails space there but am a bit wary of it becoming another PMQ.   Ahhh...the vagaries of HK shoppers. 

Then need to get a few big brands in there and then it will probably become successful- but reduce the design intent ...

The old site...
