The Henderson, a commercial tower in Hong Kong, recently won three prizes, including World's Best Property, at the International Property Awards in the UK. The building's construction, led by Henderson Land's Kevin Ng Shu-keung, faced challenges due to its complex, curved glass panels, a first for Hong Kong. Ng's team spent a year resolving issues with the panels, conducting tests at a residential construction site. Despite setbacks during the six-year construction period, The Henderson was completed in 2024 and recognized for its design by Zaha Hadid Architects. The awards acknowledge the team's dedication to overcoming obstacles and realizing the ambitious architectural vision.
