Statue Square
Statue Square is an amalgamation of Hong Kong's contemporary
architecture that reaches its most spectacular manifestation in the
designs of the Hong Kong and Shanghai Banking Corporation and the
Bank of China Tower
.The most significant feature of the HSBC building is that
it has been designed without a central core, a feat of structural
engineering blended with the ultimate in aesthetic principles. The
Bank of China Tower became a much-debated conversation piece
following its construction, largely because of the
asymmetrically-designed pinnacle that acquires differing
perspectives depending on one's vantage point.
