Nan Fung Won Kai Tak Commercial Site for HK$24.6b Nan Fung Development has won a commercial site in Kai Tak for HK$24.6 billion, smashing the record set by the Murray Road site in Central just two weeks ago. Henderson Land paid $23.2 billion, or HK$50,065 per square foot, for the former Murray Road car park in Central. Nan Fung bought the 200,500-square-foot Kai Tak site, named Area 1F Site 2, by government tender with a price of HK$12,864 per square foot. The plot can provide about 1.9 million square feet of total gross floor area, including an underground shopping street and a public transport interchange. It is also designated for office, retail or hotel development.
