Beaconsfield House, Government building in Central district, Hong Kong.
The six-story Beaconsfield House stood at 4 Queen's Road, featuring utilitarian architecture with a primary elevator and a pedestrian bridge entrance.
The building, constructed on a former rocky hill leveled in 1841, operated from 1963 until its demolition in 1995 for the Cheung Kong Center development.
The Information Services Department operated from Beaconsfield House, making it a central location for media relations and government communications in Hong Kong.
The building provided office spaces for various government departments, military messes, and postal services, with access points from both Queen's Road and Battery Path.
The site's sale to Cheung Kong Holdings in 1995 for HK$5.5 billion marked a significant transformation of the Central district's urban landscape.
