The Langham Place development was born in 1988 when t h e then-Land Development Corporation (later replaced by the Urban Renewal Authority) launched four major urban renewal projects. The Mongkok project, dubbed K2, was the largest with a footprint covering several blocks and straddling Shanghai Street. Though best known for its Bird Street, the group of city blocks mainly housed aging low-rise residential buildings and a cooked food market.

Architects Wong & Ouyang (HK) Ltd were brought onto the project at its inception to work with the LDC in creating a feasible masterplan for tendering. Developer Great Eagle Holdings Ltd was subsequently selected in 1989 to become the jointventure developer (and later the managing partner) of the project and a lengthy process to acquire more than 500 property rights within the project’s boundary was set in motion — a task that eventually spanned years.
