Abstract
The Fuji Building is a 10-year old office tower located at 2-4 Russell Street and 6-9 Canal Road East. Prior to the completion of Times Square, just across Russell Street, it was one of the finest commercial buildings in the area. However, next to Times Square it now looks like a small, ugly, old crone next to a handsome giant. Thus, the new owner of the building decided to vacate the whole structure for several months and upgrade it to Times Square standard.
富士大廈位於灣仔堅拿道東與羅素街交界,是一幢有10年歷史商廈,在時代廣場未建成前,它也算是該帶較漂亮的建築物,但在時代廣場落成後,富士大廈便仿如陋老婦站在英偉的巨人旁,因此,該大廈的新業主決定耗巨資把建築物全部騰空翻新,把它提升至時代廣場的水平。
