About Sai Ying Pun
After British army arrival at Possession Point (now Hollywood Park next to Possession Street) in 1841, the 800 or so volunteer soldiers from India and Bangladesh stationed in West Point (hillside of Water Street). Thereafter, the area west of Hollywood Park was called Sai Ying Pun 西營盤, meaning 'Western Garrison'. Flourishing trades required construction of piers, docks, warehouses, and properties to accommodate merchants for rice, dry seafoods, and herbal medicines, and the workers who supported these activities. Even today, one can still find remnants of the early colonial past in the district. World War II brought mass destruction, giving rise to reconstruction of many buildings to four to six storey tenement buildings with shops on ground floor. Rapid population growth and technological advancement necessitate these post war buildings to be redeveloped into highrises.

Thierry Keung's client say:
We had an amazing experience with Thierry Keung. He helped us find our dream apartment after weeks of searching thanks to his great local knowledge and connections. He was patient, listened to our many requests, and accommodated everything with a smile. I would absolutely use Thierry again and refer any of my friends to receive his professional services. We have used many agents during our years in Hong Kong and Thierry was by far the best.
