Sunlight Tower, Office skyscraper in Wan Chai District, Hong Kong.
Sunlight Tower is a 40-floor office building rising 156 meters at 248 Queen's Road East in Wan Chai. Its interior provides flexible workspace options for different business needs.
The building was completed in 1998 and originally called MLC Tower before later becoming known as CEF Life Tower. These name changes reflected the different major tenants that shaped the property over time.
The tower's name history tracks its tenants: MLC stood for Mutual Life & Citizens Assurance Company, an Australian insurer formed in 1908, and the building became CEF Life Tower in 1998 when CEF Life leased six floors. It was later renamed Sunlight Tower, then Dah Sing Financial Centre in March 2021 after Dah Sing Bank leased over 89,000 sq ft for its group headquarters. Designed by Andrew Lee King Fun & Associates.
The tower is a working office building at 248 Queen's Road East, at the junction with Tai Yuen Street, and is not open to visitors. The nearest MTR access is Wan Chai station Exit A3, about a six-minute walk away. Nearby landmarks for orientation include the Wan Chai Market, Wu Chung House and Hopewell Centre.
The building is operated by Henderson Sunlight Asset Management as a single-landlord property, ensuring stable management and consistent upkeep. This structure sets it apart from many other office buildings in Hong Kong that have multiple owners.
