Current condition
Demolished / No longer exists
Date completed
The opening date comes from pg319 of HUNG HOM: AN EARLY INDUSTRIAL VILLAGE IN OLD BRITISH KOWLOON by CARL T. SMITH & JAMES HAYES
I'm not sure when it closed, though IDJ notes:
I think the process plant for the cement factory closed in the late 70s limiting its dust and smoke output, but a bagging plant remained until much later.

Re: Green Island Cement, Hok Cheung Street
Hi there,
Walked through the area last week and found there is still a building marked as Green Island Cement today. That would be right at the seaside at Hok Cheung Street.
Best Regards,
