I have this photo which had the following markings on it (Causeway Bay with East Point early  1870's)

It doesn't look like East Point. Any help is much appreciated. Thanks.

Date picture taken
1870s

This is East Point showing the premises and godowns of Jardine Matheson. Compare this photo from around 1900:

Jardine's, by Paulo

 The two houses at both sides looks quite the same, the one in the centre seems higher in 1900. This will become the Jardine Matheson Single Storey Godown with Residence on Top [c.1860-1952], it looks unfinished on the older photo.
