Following the opening of the shopping mall in the first phase of Central Yards, the temporary pedestrian passageway will be dismantled and transformed into a vibrant, multi-functional green harbourfront platform. At that time, the public will be able to walk conveniently and comfortably between the Central Harbourfront and ifc through the mall.

Central Yards is envisioned as a global harbourfront icon, inspired by the concept of “The Bridge”, connecting the core of Central, surrounding communities, City Hall, and the world-renowned Victoria Harbour. It will also feature a large-scale open green space for public enjoyment. The first phase of the project is scheduled to top out in the second quarter of this year and open in 2027, while the second phase is expected to be completed in 2032. Central Yards will further elevate Central as a vibrant, cutting-edge global district.
