Grand Promenade, Residential skyscraper complex in Sai Wan Ho, Hong Kong.
Grand Promenade is a five-tower residential estate at 38 Tai Hong Street, Sai Wan Ho, completed in June 2005. The towers rise 55 to 58 storeys above a six-storey podium; Towers 2, 3 and 5 reach 219 metres, while Towers 1 and 6 reach 209 metres. The photograph shows the slender high-rise behind moored boats, its facade divided by pale vertical columns into three sections of tightly stacked windows.
This development was completed in 2005 on land where a ferry terminal once stood. The project transformed the district's infrastructure and how the waterfront area functions.
The name Grand Promenade comes from 'Ga' for diversity, 'Hang' for smooth progress and 'Waan' for the waterfront site. The 2021 census recorded 4,801 residents, over 25% of them non-Chinese, with a median household income of HK$67,300. The estate is pet-friendly and its Club@Sea has over 70 facilities.
The complex stands at 38 Tai Hong Street, about a five-minute walk from Sai Wan Ho MTR station; trains reach Causeway Bay in 12 minutes and Central in 18. A public transport interchange occupies the podium's ground floor, with a three-storey car park holding 500 spaces above it. The residential entrance on Tai Hong Street operates 24-hour closed management, and the clubhouse sits on the 6th floor.
The development stands on the former Sai Wan Ho Ferry Pier site, sold to Henderson Land and Hongkong and Yaumati Ferry in December 2000 for HK$2.43 billion. A 2005 Audit Commission report found that extra floor area was granted for the public transport interchange without full premium payment, a controversy that led to a government inquiry.
