History
The site was originally planned for hotel use only, rather than residential use because of its proximity to Container Terminal 9 already owned by Hutchison.
However, the development turned out to be a slab block of 3 hotels at the front and 5 additional 40-storey residential blocks at the back. The residential complex consists of 8oo units of 2 or 3 bedroom flats with Gross Floor Areas from approx. 680 - 950 square feet (63 - 88 square meter) (translating into net usable floor area of between 540 and 760 square feet (50 and 71 square meter)).
