The higher GPR would correspondingly boost the redevelopment’s permitted gross floor area (GFA) to 525,854 sq ft, a significant increase from its existing GFA of 419,142 sq ft. Furthermore, voluntary conservation would certainly likewise grant a greater optimum building elevation of 164m, up from the site’s present limitation of 145m.
