1063 King's Road was Hongkong Land's first development in the emerging new business district of Island East on Hong Kong Island. Completed in 1999, the 30-storey Grade A office complex provides 225,000 sq. ft. of office space in a high specification environment designed to cater for the widest range of tenants.

Hongkong Land awarded Gammon a contract for the construction of the foundations and superstructure of the building in single package. The contract required the building to be completed within a Guaranteed Maximum Price (GMP), thus combining the advantages of the management contracting approach, with the fixed price of a traditional tender. As part of the professional team, we carried out cost-management and value-engineering analysis; defined and implemented the programme and construction methodology; jointly identified and appointed works contractors; and, researched and developed technical design solutions.
