Highcliff, Residential skyscraper in Wan Chai District, Hong Kong
The Highcliff building reaches a height of 252.4 meters and contains 73 floors of luxury apartments overlooking Hong Kong Island and Victoria Harbor.
The construction of this residential tower, completed in 2003, marked a significant advancement in Hong Kong's vertical development during the early 21st century.
Local residents refer to Highcliff and its neighboring building, The Summit, as 'The Chopsticks' due to their thin vertical profiles in the skyline.
The building incorporates a passive wind damper system at its top level to stabilize the structure against strong winds and typhoons common in Hong Kong.
With a slenderness ratio of 1:20, this residential tower stands as one of the thinnest tall buildings constructed globally, demonstrating exceptional engineering.
