When Castle Peak Road was built in the early 20th century, addresses were marked in miles from a theoretical origin point, namely the Tsim Sha Tsui Ferry Pier. Some addresses along the road (particularly in the rural areas) still comprise the nearest milepost. The China Dyeing Works Building, located on Castle Peak Road, is about 8½ miles from the pier, hence the name of the shopping mall.[2]
On 11 October 2017, IKEA opened its fourth outlet in Hong Kong in 8½, formerly known as China Dyeing Works Place and CDW Place. Occupying 4 storeys and with a retail space of 90,000 square feet, IKEA is the key tenant of the mall.[3]
