Visit Highlights

Hysan Place was officially opened in August 2012. It is a shopping mall and office building at

Causeway Bay, Hong Kong. It was developed by Hysan Development Company Limited at the former site of Hennessy Centre.

Hysan Place is a 40-storey retail/office building, covering a total gross floor area of approximately710,000 square feet and a site area of around 47,738 square feet. The building is specially designed according to the micro-climate in the area, enabling it to blend seamlessly with its surrounding environment. The green building elements are summarized below:

Urban window	-	Large openings at lower levels of the building, which allow efficient air flow and improve the micro-climate of the area.
Mixed mode ventilation	-	The system solves a common problem of inadequate natural ventilation in most commercial buildings with glass curtain walls. The operable vents offer a choice to tenants to use free cooling instead of air conditioning.
Ventilation doors on the G/F	-	In favourable weather conditions, two pairs of ventilation doors can be opened in the mall, allowing businesses and pedestrians to enjoy fresh air and reducing the need for air conditioning.
Natural lighting system	-	Light shelves and solar shadings utilise and enhance natural lighting, thus reducing energy consumption.
Urban farm	-	At the mall’s rooftop, it helps cool the building while also allowing the participants to experience organic farming in the bustling city center.

Hysan Place has been awarded LEED Platinum certification for Core and Shell by the U.S. Green Building Council (USGBC). It is the first LEED Platinum mixed use office and vertical mall complex in Greater China. In addition, Hysan Place has been awarded Platinum certification under BEAM Plus for new buildings.
