That's not all that's gone wrong in Hong Kong lately..
The 14-year-old Ritz Carlton, a standout building in the Central Business District, is being torn down for another soulless office block. This is presumably because a top-notch hotel in one of Asia's richest cities cannot make enough profit to satisfy greedy real estate developers.
Within days of its closure, it was adorned with a massive (maybe 20-25 stories) CK ad focused on a dude's bikini-clad nuts.
