Here is another photo of the place from the opposite direction i.e. looking west. One can see the tram coming out from Clevery street and heading east. One can see on the right part of the sign of 金桃酒樓 (golden peach restaurant) with red characters and blue background. Further away is sign of 西宛海鮮酒家 (west villa restaurant) with white characters and blue background. On the left is 正大參茸行 sign with white characters and red background. It was a ginseng shop at 310 des voeux central according to a 1980 directory. Behind that sign, one can see a smaller sign of a pawn shop. All thses signs can be seen in your photo.
Thank you for clarification as to the locations for the photographs. I'll try to link them to pins on the map, or add new pins in the appropriate places.

Hi Simtang,
Hi Simtang,
