United Centre, Office tower at Queensway, Admiralty, Hong Kong.
United Centre is a modern office tower with 36 floors in the Admiralty area, distinguished by its contemporary facade design in the business district. The structure provides roughly 51,000 square meters (549,000 sq ft) of office space with flexible floor layouts to accommodate different company sizes.
The building was constructed in 1981 and marked the beginning of a period of intense commercial growth in the Admiralty area of Hong Kong Island. Its creation came during a time when the city was rapidly becoming a global financial and trading hub.
The building skips certain floor numbers like the 4th, 14th, and 24th to respect local customs tied to Chinese numerology. This reflects how Hong Kong's architecture mirrors the beliefs of its residents.
The building sits about 100 meters (330 feet) from Admiralty MTR Station, making it easily accessible by public transport. Multiple entrance points and numerous elevators throughout the structure facilitate movement for visitors and workers.
The building offers unusually flexible floor layouts, with individual levels varying between roughly 407 and 961 square meters (4,400 to 10,350 sq ft). This variety allows different companies to lease spaces tailored to their specific needs.
