Monday Mornings
Central, Hong Kong is the most expensive office district in the world.
Who knew that one of the most photographed buildings in Hong Kong would actually mean some serious business? We are talking about Central, which happens to be the most expensive office district in the world, leaving London behind. With major banks like Citibank, Standard Chartered and HSBC, Central seeks a rent of $269 per square feet per year on an average, seeing a rise of 5.5 per cent each year. The companies are going too far to avoid sitting jobs so that they can occupy lesser space, saving whatever they could on rent. So, the next time you are in Hong Kong, do not miss passing by this business wonder. And while you are at it, take a look at the world’s third most expensive space; West Kowloon that holds a rent of $164 per square feet per year.
