Bank of China Tower

The Bank of China Tower (BOC Tower) is a skyscraper in Hong Kong's Central district. The Bank of China (Hong Kong) Limited's headquarters are located at 1 Garden Road on Hong Kong Island. The structure, one of Hong Kong's most recognizable monuments, is noteworthy for its distinctive shape and architecture, which consists of triangular frames covered by glass curtain walls. Chinese American architects I. M. Pei and L.C Pei of I.M Pei & Partners created the structure. The building is the fourth highest skyscraper in Hong Kong, behind the International Commerce Centre, Two International Finance Centre, and Central Plaza, with a height of 315 m and a height of 367.4 m with a 52.4 m spire.

From 1989 until 1992, it was the highest building in Hong Kong and Asia, and it was the first supertall skyscraper outside of the United States, breaking the 305 m (1,000 ft) barrier. In 1992, it was superseded by Central Plaza on the same island. Construction began on the former site of Murray House on April 18, 1985 and was finished five years later in 1990. The building, which has a steel-column architecture, is accessible from the MTR's Central Station. The structure is located between Cotton Tree Drive and Garden Road.
