Hong Kong’s government has announced the first sale of commercial land in the city’s central business district in more than 20 years.

The site, currently used as a multi-story car park in Murray Road, Central, is about 31,000 square feet, according to a government statement released late yesterday. The plot is valued at HK$15.8 billion to HK$17 billion ($2.2 billion), according to Vincent Cheung, Colliers International executive director of valuation and advisory for Asia.
