StarCrest, Residential complex in Wan Chai, Hong Kong
StarCrest is a residential complex in Wan Chai, Hong Kong, made up of two towers with a total of 329 units. It also has a swimming pool, a fitness center, a golf range, and a dance studio on site.
The complex was completed by Swire Properties in 1999 and was one of the early upscale housing developments in this part of Wan Chai. The neighborhood around it has shifted noticeably toward residential use since then.
The complex brings together Chinese and international design elements, and this blend is visible in how the public spaces are laid out and used by residents who come from many different backgrounds.
The complex is within walking distance of several MTR stations, making it easy to reach by public transport. Most of the on-site facilities are reserved for residents and are not accessible to outside visitors.
The building sits right next to Pacific Place, one of Hong Kong's best-known shopping centers, which residents can reach on foot from home. This kind of direct access to a major retail hub is unusual even for central Wan Chai.
