Metro Town (left) and its Phase 2, Le Point (right)

Metro Town Phase One, often abbreviated to Metro Town (Chinese: 都會駅), is a private residential high-rise development located in the Tseung Kwan O district of the New Territories in Hong Kong, near the MTR station in Tiu Keng Leng. It was a joint development by Cheung Kong Holdings, Nan Fung Group and MTR Corporation, which began in 2006.[1][2][3]

The complex consists of four towers,[4] each of which ranks among the tallest buildings in the city. The tallest buildings in the complex are Metro Town Tower 1 and Metro Town Tower 2 (also called Le Point), which both rise 205 metres (673 ft) and have 62 floors.[5][6][7] The towers are tied with Four Seasons Place as the 45th-tallest buildings in Hong Kong. Towers 3 and 5 rise 188 metres (617 ft) and have 57 floors,[8][9] standing as the 76th-tallest buildings in the city and tied in rank with One and Two Exchange Square. The entire complex was completed in 2006.[4] Metro Town is planned to contain ten skyscrapers, but as of 2008 only the four towers of Phase One have been constructed.[10] This first phase of the project contains 1,676 residential units.[4]

Phase 2: Le Point

Le Point (French pronunciation: ​[lə pwɛ̃]; 城中駅) is a private housing estate belonging to Phase 2 of Metro Town[11] Its five towers (which are named "Tower 6" to "Tower 10") were jointly developed by Cheung Kong Holdings, Nan Fung Group and MTR Corporation.[12][13] Completed in 2008, it is comprised a total of 2,096 units.[14]
