Henderson banks on tenant ‘FOMO’ to fill up US$8b Central Yards project

·South China Morning Post·Impact 2/5 · Moderate

Henderson Land Development is counting on the fear of missing out (FOMO) among potential tenants to fill up its Central Yards project, a HK$63 billion development in Hong Kong. This strategy relies on the idea that top-tier office space is in high demand, even in a weak office market. As a result, the company is hoping to attract more tenants, following the lead of Jane Street, which took 70 percent of the office space in the first phase of the project.
