New Kowloon Cinema Theatre. This photo shows the theatre's neighbours and its location relative to a major landmark that still exists today - the runway built on water.
A part of the nullah can be seen on the right of the photo with its flow direction to the sea and alignment parallel to the runway. The theatre was located by the nullah roughly 100 feet or 30 metres beyond the photo's edge. The date of the photo is estimated to be mid-1950s.

The main photo was taken after the completion of the reclaimed runway at Kai Tak. Thus, the New Kowloon Cinema does not appear in the photo.
