“AIRSIDE” is a grade A office and retail development located on a comprehensive development area site and also the heart of the former Kai Tak Airport site. It is a 200m high, 1.9 million ft² mixed-use commercial development in the Kai Tak area which consists of a 32-storey Grade A office, a multi-storey retail complex, a public transport interchange, an all-weather landscaped elevated walkway, basement car parking facilities and retail with an underground shopping street directly connected to Kai Tak Station. All are coupled with cascading greenery, open-air rooftop, terraces, surrounding grounds and extensive 56,000 ft² of greenery spaces for activities and respite.
The vision of the project is to create a place for “Wholeness”, a people-oriented environment, socially inclusive community with exemplary environmental performance and innovative sustainable features. It will certainly be a new landmark in Kai Tak which brings in not only greening, entertainment and job opportunities to the community but also makes the neighbourhood a better living space.
