Citylink Plaza is a building that was built above Sha Tin Station of the MTR East Rail Line in Hong Kong. It was developed and is owned by the Kowloon-Canton Railway Corporation (KCRC). The building, as well as the railway station, is connected to the New Town Plaza, which is one of the largest shopping centres in Sha Tin District.

History

The building originally housed the headquarters of the KCRC and some offices of the Hong Kong Government. It was called the KCR House (Chinese: 九廣鐵路大廈) before the adoption of the current name in the mid-1990s. However, the Hong Kong Government had built another separate building near Grand Central Plaza to house the government offices, and the headquarters of the KCRC had already moved to a new building next to the Fo Tan Station of the MTR East Rail Line. The original building was refurnished and was converted into a shopping centre and some business offices.
