Project Description

Times Square is a landmark luxury shopping centre and office tower complex in Causeway Bay. It consists of 83,700 m2 of retail space, and two office towers with 102,300 m2 of accommodation.

Times Square is considered the first of its kind, the first “vertical mall” in Hong Kong.

The space allocated to retail is configured over 9 storeys.
