Mega projects are nothing new for Hong Kong. But what will the latest multibillion dollar developments bring to a city facing its share of tough questions?
Hong Kong is, seemingly, a city under perennial construction. Whether it’s the ever-advancing spread of newly built MTR lines or land reclamation adding more square kilometres to the city’s bustling urban sprawl, there is never any shortage of building sites and new ambitions.
