Millennium City, Hong Kong

Millennium City is a group of skyscrapers in Kwun Tong, Hong Kong built along the southern side of Kwun Tong Road near station and developed by Sun Hung Kai Properties.

The Millennium City project currently consists of four buildings, numbered 1, 2, 3 and 5. The number 4 is widely regarded as throughout Asia and in both and it is a homophone for "death".

Millennium City 1 and 2 are connected and share a mall and a lobby on their ground floor. They host the headquarters of Standard Chartered Bank, a data center and various other offices. They have shiny blue glass walls and look modern compared to old factory buildings in the area.

Millennium City 6 and 7 are under planning, and both will be built in the Kwun Tong Industrial Area, farther from Kwun Tong Road.
