Hi there,

It is very likely Aberdeen Street.  At least the steps looks very much alike despite all those years.

Best Regards,

As T says it looks like Aberdeen St. I was interested in the sign on the pillar facing QRC . Perhaps a rickshaw 'stand'.

I support although the words are not clear and complete.

The lampost reminds me of the Hedda Morrison photo looking up Pottinger Street. Then the road across the foreground of the stereoview would be Stanley Street, and the road with the lampost would be Wellington Street.

There's a marked-up copy of the Morrison photo about halfway down this page, and the original is on the VIA website.

I can't make a 100% match from comparing those two photos though, so it may well still be Aberdeen Street.

regards, David

Hi there,

Hmm... the steps in the photo did not have the "sidewalk" by the right as Pottinger did.  If only we have more photos for comparison.

Best Regards,
