尖沙咀1881地下G15号地铺，面积约1500方呎，近期由日本品牌STUDIOUS进驻，开设本港首家旗舰店，市场人士预期月租约35万，平均每呎约233元。

该巨铺前身为英皇集团，早于2009年进驻1881，并承租地下多个巨铺，打造珠宝旗舰店，业内人士表示，由于目前租金较当年高峰期回落，吸引时装品牌进驻，成为回归香港的首个据点。本报向长实查询有关租金及详情，发言人表示未能作回应。

STUDIOUS早于2017年于铜锣湾Fashion Walk开设旗舰店，该品牌标榜「from JAPAN to the WORLD」，以不同方式、角度将日本传统时装品牌呈现给消费者，向世界传达自己的个性和张扬。

今年以来，国际品牌时装纷回归香港，其中，美式服装品牌Abercrombie & Fitch (下简称 A&F) 一口气承租2个巨铺，位处沙田新城市广场约万方呎巨铺，及铜锣湾希慎广场一个约7000呎铺，市场注目。

来自杭州的一间时装品牌店SETIROM (「西町村屋) 首度攻港，以每月逾80万承租尖沙咀弥敦道26号地库及地下连一楼 (涉及三层)，面积逾1.6万方呎，建立旗舰店，业内人士表示，该店吼準核心游客区，为走向国际市场迈向一大步。

Chen Hongtian saga: Hong Kong university pays US$334 million for tower in distress sale

Hong Kong Metropolitan University makes its second purchase in six months in this year’s biggest commercial deal

One HarbourGate East Tower, a premium office building formerly owned by cash-strapped Chinese tycoon Chen Hongtian, has found a new owner after Hong Kong Metropolitan University (HKMU) struck a deal with the receivers, according to people familiar with the matter.

The university agreed to pay HK$2.6 billion (US$334 million) for the 15-storey building in Hung Hom, Kowloon, the people said. It reflects a 42 per cent discount to the HK$4.5 billion Chen’s flagship entity Cheung Kei Group paid for the property in 2016.

The deal, the single-largest transaction in the city this year, suggests more investors are taking the plunge to scoop up distressed assets at deep discounts as the government takes steps to arrest a slump in the property market. Top mainland officials have also recently vowed to support Hong Kong as a financial hub, a tacit backing for a key pillar of the economy.

“HKMU has been actively exploring different ways to provide its students and staff with more and enhanced spaces for learning, teaching and research, including executive training programmes” to support its expansion, it said in a statement to the Post. It declined to elaborate on the transaction.

One HarbourGate East comprises an office tower and two levels of retail space totalling 279,000 sq ft, as well as 155 car-parking spaces. The asset was valued at HK$7 billion in 2022. It was put on the chopping block in July, after a failed attempt to sell in May 2023.

Chen lost control of the asset after what he described as “a short-term cash-flow disruption” to his business. Creditors also separately seized a 9,200 sq ft house on The Peak, which Chen bought for HK$2.1 billion in 2016.

The sale of One HarbourGate East topped recent high-value deals in Hong Kong’s commercial property market. Beijing-based sportswear company Li Ning acquired the Harbour East office tower in North Point for HK$2.2 billion in December last year, for its Hong Kong headquarters.

HKMU, the sixth-largest in the city in terms of undergraduates, has been an active buyer. The university paid HK$1 billion in July for Urbanwood Hung Hom, a 255-room hotel in Kowloon, to convert it into student accommodation, as Hong Kong aims to make the city a major education hub.

Hong Kong’s commercial property market is in the midst of its worst rout since the Asian financial crisis. Grade-A office values have dropped 40 per cent since their peak in 2018, while the number of employees at regional headquarters of multinational companies in the city has also declined by about one-third, according to a report published last month by S&P Global Ratings.
