Wheelock House, Commercial office building in Central, Hong Kong.
Wheelock House is a 24-story office building at the intersection of Pedder Street and Des Voeux Road Central with premium office spaces throughout. The tower stands out for its central location, making it a preferred site for established companies and financial firms.
Construction was completed in 1984 by architects Wong & Ouyang, replacing the original Jardine House that stood here beginning in 1841. Multiple reconstructions have made this one of the oldest commercial locations in the financial district.
The building serves as headquarters for Wheelock and Company Limited, one of Hong Kong's oldest and most influential trading enterprises. Its location on Pedder Street has long signaled business success and power within the financial district.
The building sits near Central MTR station with easy access to multiple transportation options and business amenities throughout the area. Visitors should note this is an active workplace where public access may be limited to certain areas.
The site has documented commercial history spanning nearly two centuries and has been completely rebuilt multiple times, making it one of Hong Kong's longest continuously used business locations. This ongoing evolution shows how significant this small patch of land has been to Hong Kong's trade and commerce.
