Celestial Heights, Private housing estate in Kowloon City District, Hong Kong.
Celestial Heights is a residential complex on Quarry Hill in Kowloon City comprising multiple towers, each soaring beyond 50 floors and housing 939 units in total. The development contains modern apartments arranged in efficient configurations with common amenities throughout the grounds.
The development began in 2004 when Cheung Kong Holdings acquired the site of the former Ho Man Tin Police Married Quarters. This transformation of previously public land into a private residential project represented a significant shift in the area's urban fabric.
The complex's Chinese name, Half Mountain One, comes from its setting partway up the hillside where residents experience layered views of the surroundings. People in the area speak of the development as a landmark that defines this part of the district's skyline.
The complex connects easily to public transportation through the nearby To Kwa Wan station and various bus routes serving the area. Daily shopping and dining options are accessible along Kau Pui Lung Road within walking distance.
The land purchase price placed this acquisition among Hong Kong's most expensive real estate transactions at the time of completion. This benchmark influenced how developers approached future projects in the surrounding area.
