Harbour Building, Government office building in Central and Western District, Hong Kong.
The Harbour Building at Pier Road is a multi-story modern office structure housing administrative functions and specialized departments. Its design combines office space with technical facilities needed for port management operations.
The building opened in 1985 during a period when Hong Kong was rapidly expanding its port infrastructure and administrative capacity. This era marked the modernization of the city's maritime management systems.
The building houses key maritime agencies and reflects Hong Kong's role as a major international port. Its purpose shows how important shipping administration is to the city's daily operations and economic life.
The building sits roughly a 10-minute walk from Sheung Wan MTR Station and is served by several bus routes. Visitors should note that this is an administrative building with limited public access to its interior spaces.
The building oversees all vessel traffic in Victoria Harbour and maintains registries for ships using the port. This work happens behind the scenes but shapes the maritime rhythm of the city each day.
