About Two IFC

Two IFC is the taller of two International Finance Centre buildings and part of a US$2.8 billion complex that includes a luxury shopping mall, the Four Seasons Hotel, and Hong Kong Station. The complex is located on the north shore of Hong Kong Island, across from Victoria Harbour where an even taller skyscraper, the International Commerce Centre (ICC), is nearing completion.

Architect Cesar Pelli was selected to design the Two IFC skyscraper after winning an international design competition.
