Some photos show a single
Earlier photos show it with a small second storey and a pitched roof, but in later photos the second storey is gone and the building has a flat roof.
RBL 59
The government map from 1955, 1:600 213-NW-1 (Ed 1955-05), has this lot marked as RBL 59.
(The commercial 1924 map shows this lot as RBL 58, but I think the government map is more trustworthy.)
Bahar Lodge Construction Date
I'm not sure if "Bahar Lodge" was built on RBL 58 or 59, but they were neighboring lots and were both put up for public auction on the same day, 2nd July 1888, auction results unkn0wn. The earliest mention of "Bahar Lodge" that I've found is on Page 3 of The Hong Kong Telegraph of 17th April 1890 which advertised "Bahar Lodge" for rent, suggesting its construction had been completed.
Therefore "Bahar Lodge" was constructed at sometime between 2nd July 1888 and 17th April 1890.
