History
Serving as the headquarters for Wheelock and Company Limited—the principal shareholder of The Wharf (Holdings) Limited, a prominent Hong Kong conglomerate—Wheelock House occupies the location formerly home to three successive Jardine House buildings, which were the former offices of Jardine, Matheson & Co. The original Jardine House was likely erected around 1841 following Jardine's acquisition of land on The Praya Central. A second structure was built in 1908, later rebuilt around 1956, before being replaced in the early 1970s by what is now Wheelock House.
