===Presence in Hong Kong=== Hongkong Land is the single largest landlord in [[Central, Hong Kong]].<ref name="auto"/> In recent decades, the company focused on upgrading its commercial buildings in Central. In 2003, the redevelopment of Swire House into the new [[Chater House]] was completed. Major renovations have since been carried out in the [[Prince's Building]]. [[The Landmark (Hong Kong)|The Landmark]] has also been redeveloped, with the Landmark Mandarin Oriental Hotel and York House added. Hongkong Land has also redeveloped The Forum, the retail block at [[Exchange Square (Hong Kong)|Exchange Square]], into a 5-story office block, which is wholly leased to [[Standard Chartered Bank]]. In early 2012, a new brand "LANDMARK" was launched covering the company's four most famous shopping destinations The Landmark, [[Alexandra House]], Chater House and Prince's Building, which are linked by pedestrian bridges, part of the [[Central Elevated Walkway]]. It was accompanied by a new logo "L", representing LANDMARK and luxury retail. The company has also developed three luxury residential buildings on Hong Kong Island in recent years, namely Serenade, The Sail at Victoria and Ivy on Belcher's. {{Citation needed|date=February 2022}} In October 2006, Hongkong Land hosted the CENTRAL Rat Race for the first time in the heart of Central, which has since become an annual event. This charity relay event helps raise funds for MINDSET, a registered charity supporting mental-health related organisations and projects in Hong Kong and mainland China. The inaugural race raised over HK$2 million and as of 31 December 2015, some HK$25 million has been raised.<ref>{{Cite web|url = http://www.centralratrace.com/en/whatis/overview.php|title = CENTRAL Rat Race official website}}</ref>
