Olympian City () is a comprehensive retail and residential development situated on reclaimed land in Tai Kok Tsui, Kowloon, Hong Kong, positioned adjacent to the MTR Olympic station. It functions as a prominent commercial and living district within West Kowloon. The retail segments—Olympian City 1, 2, and 3—were constructed by Sino Land, whereas the residential sections were a collaborative project between MTR Corporation and Sino Land.
Phases
The construction of Olympian City occurred in three distinct stages:
- Phase I (1998–2000) encompassed Island Harbourview, HSBC Centre, Bank of China Centre, along with Olympian City 1.
- Phase II (2000–2002) included Park Avenue, Central Park, and Olympian City 2.
- Phase III (finalized in 2011) introduced The Hermitage and Olympian City 3.
Adjacent to this is the Olympic Station Package 3 development (Harbour Green, by Sun Hung Kai Properties), which is an independent project.
Olympian City 1
Completed in 2000 by Sino Land, Olympian City 1 is positioned at Olympic station’s exit A. It provides roughly of retail area spread over three levels, featuring more than 30 shops including a variety of Chinese and Western dining options, lifestyle outlets, spas, and niche hobby stores.
Olympian City 2
Located at exit D of Olympic station and finished in 2001 by Sino Land, Olympian City 2 covers about over three floors and hosts upwards of 180 retailers. Its offerings include fashion boutiques, jewelry outlets, specialty lifestyle shops, a bowling alley, and a cinema.
In September 2012, lifestyle brand G.O.D. collaborated with Sino Art to present The Street Market Symphony Exhibition at Olympian City 2. This multimedia art installation celebrated Hong Kong’s traditional wet market culture through oversized red lampshades and was G.O.D.’s inaugural solo art show within a shopping mall environment.
Olympian City 3
Finished in 2011, Olympian City 3 lies to the east of Olympian City 2 and is linked via a pedestrian bridge. The mall comprises two floors with over 70 retail outlets. Access is available from Olympic station (Exit D) by passing through Olympian City 2 or from Mong Kok station (Exit C4) along Argyle Street Westbound.
Residential estates
The development includes four principal private residential complexes developed by Sino Land and MTR Corporation: Island Harbourview, Park Avenue, Central Park, and The Hermitage. Additional nearby housing projects around Olympian City and Olympic station feature One Silver Sea, Imperial Cullinan, The Long Beach, Hampton Place, Florient Rise, Harbour Green, Charming Garden, and Hoi Fu Court.
Office
Olympian City contains four office buildings: the three-tower HSBC Centre and the standalone Bank of China Centre. Developed by Sino Land, these properties were subsequently acquired by HSBC and Bank of China (Hong Kong) respectively for their administrative headquarters.
