18 Upper East, Residential tower in Sai Wan Ho, Hong Kong
18 Upper East is a 31-storey single-block residential tower at 18-36 Shing On Street in Sai Wan Ho, developed by Emperor Group under Yee Kee Investment and completed in December 2012. It has 108 flats of 300 to 1,300 square feet across 28 residential floors above a 3-storey base, with some flats facing Lei Yue Mun and Victoria Harbour. The base holds 8 shops, the 2nd floor a clubhouse and podium garden, and the 33rd floor a sky garden.
18 Upper East occupies the former site of six tong lau at 18–36 Shing On Street. Emperor Group, through Tien Sheng Group, bought two of them for HK$130 million in 2007, added number 28 for HK$56.8 million, and four more for HK$80 million in 2008. The merged site was developed as Yee Kee Investment and the tower opened in December 2012.
The name 18 Upper East refers to the building's address at 18 Shing On Street in Sai Wan Ho. Emperor Group promoted the property with singer Charlene Choi, a performer signed to its own label, as its spokesperson. The clubhouse on the second floor and the roof garden on the 33rd floor are shared amenities for residents.
The building sits approximately 100 meters from Sai Wan Ho MTR station, making it easily accessible by public transit. Multiple bus routes from the area connect to Central, the airport, and surrounding neighborhoods.
Retail spaces occupy the ground level, creating active street frontages for the neighborhood. The property is divided among multiple landlords, which is a common pattern in Hong Kong's densely developed residential areas.
