ifc mall

8 Finance St, Central

Luxury shopping mall built on reclaimed harbour land beneath twin supertall towers in Central.

This guide to ifc mall in Hong Kong starts with the ground itself, dredged from Victoria Harbour in the nineteen-nineties as part of a plan to move the city's airport to Lantau and build an express rail line straight into Central. It follows the two towers that rose on that reclaimed land, the Cantonese number superstitions built into their floor plans, and the rivalry between Two IFC and its rival across the harbour. Listen for how a shopping mall ended up sitting on top of a working railway line.
