1. Hong Kong's real estate market enjoyed boon conditions in the summer of 1981. The most spectaculer transaction of all occurred when a consortium of well-known Hong Kong real estate companies paid a world record price of HK$2,800 million for the site on which stands the old wing of the Miramar Hotel, bounded on one side by Nathan Road - aptly known as "The Golden Mile" - and on the other by Kimberley Road in the tourist district of Tsim Sha Tsui, Kowloon.
