Hi There,

Is there a Gasometer in the photo?  On the other hand, the playground of Wah Yan College Hong Kong appeared to be all dug up, or incompleted.  I suspect this photo is earlier than the 1960's.

Hi there,

No AIA Building, which was inaugurated in 1966.  But the Wah Yan College playground is an anomoly as it was supposed to be inaugurated in December 1955.  The upper & lower car park area also looked like a construction site in the photo.

The TWGH Li Chi Ho Primary School was not there while it was in the 1963 photo.  Pre-1963 at least.

Anybody familiar with the Morrison Hill demolishment could provide some enlightenment?
