Hi Daniel, this is the Central Star Ferry Pier (3rd location, Edinburgh Place) [1957-2006] and the Star Ferry Multi-storey Car Park [1957- ]. Queen's Pier is outside of the photo on the right.
The small house possibly has been used in connection with the reclamation west of the Star Ferry Pier.
Have seen a 1971 photo that showed the Government Publication Centre was housed in the larger white squarish building adjoining the covered Star Ferry walkway.

Hi Klaus, thank you very much and my apologies for that silly mistake. Of course it is the old Star Ferry. Have a good day and best regards, Daniel

In the series of photos from 1971, there is one clearly showing the use of the white square building:
