Entertainment Building, a 186-meter (612 foot) tall, 33-story commercial and retail skyscraper, is located in the heart of Central District, Hong Kong Island.  The building was completed and opened for business in 1993.  Designed by P&T Architects & Engineers Limited, the building features striking neo-gothic architecture that brought Hong Kong’s business district an innovative and bold landmark along its impressive skyline.  The building’s exterior features colored, polished granite from Brazil with gray tinted glass windows and an impressive spire at the top of the tower.  The bold and unique design has a distinctive look of quality and elegance and towers over the older, shorter nearby office buildings.

Entertainment Building is located in the heart of Hong Kong’s commercial and financial district at a strategic junction of Wyndham Street, Queen’s Road Central and D’Aguilar Street that provides convenient access to the area’s business district, as well as shopping and entertainment for the building’s visitors and tenants.  The 33-story skyscraper provides breathtaking panoramic 360-degree views of the city and beautiful Victor Harbor.  Lan Kwai Fong, City Hall, Star Ferry and The Landmark are just blocks away.  There are several convenient public transportation options including Airport Express, ferry, and the MTR Railway.

Hong Kong is world-renowned for having one of the finest, and many say the finest, skyline in the entire world.  Towering, innovative skyscrapers grace the skyline with mountainous terrain and the beautiful Victoria Harbor forming a backdrop over one of the world’s leading financial and banking centers.  Entertainment Building, with its striking and innovative design, not only contributes aesthetic interest to Hong Kong’s skyline, but is also is an important commercial and retail venue in the heart of Hong Kong’s Central District.

Hong Kong, a special administrative region of the People’s Republic of China, is world renown for having one of the world’s greatest skylines. A majority of Hong Kong’s terrain is hilly or mountainous, and with 7 million people living in a 426 square mile region, it is one of the most densely populated areas in the world. To compensate for the lack of space, many of the world’s tallest skyscrapers have been constructed in Hong Kong, one of the leading financial and banking centers in the world. There are total 106 towers over 180 meters (or, 591 feet) tall.

Two International Finance Center is Hong Kong’s tallest building. Constructed in 2003, it is 88 stored and 415 meters (1362 feet) tall. It is the world’s seventh tallest building and the third tallest building in China. The 78-stored Central Plaza is the second tallest building in the entire Hong Kong, measuring 374 meters (1227 feet) high. Within the Central Plaza is Hong Kong City church, which is the world’s tallest church located within a skyscraper. The 70-stored Bank of China Tower, designed by world-renown architect I.M. Pei, at 367 meters (1204 feet) tall is Hong Kong’s third tallest building. Bank of China Tower was the first ever skyscraper built outside of the United States which ultimately went over 1000 feet (305 meters) tall. There are a total of 6 finished buildings in Hong Kong which are over 300 meters (984 feet) tall as of the year 2008. No other city other than Hong Kong can claim that feat in the entire world.
