I think I'm as excited about the new residential development by Blake's in Hong Kong as I am about the new year!
226 Hollywood Road in the old neighbourhood Sheung Wan (just west of Central) was designed by British designer Ilse Crawford and is a refreshing change from the usual character-less high rise apartments this city usually has to offer. This development is unique in many ways - not only are the apartments of reasonable size, the entire project has been designed in a way that retains some sense of the local neighbourhoods original character. And what a neighbourhood! The building is just down the road from the fabulous Press Room (a favorite brunch spot of mine) and the new kid on the block - Duecentotto. No wonder the apartments have sold already!
Oh, and I love the bathrooms too. Grey marble and gold taps. Brilliant.
Happy 2011 to you all!

do you know how big the apts. are and how much they sold for ??? Not that I could/would afford just curious....
Hi Gina, the apts were 1280-1450 sq ft each (1 per floor)...have no idea what they sold for...but I'm guessing more than I could afford too!
I travel to HK all the time...I love to eat at the Press Room... right down from there!!
