The is indeed the HSBC Headquarters Building (2nd generation) [1886-1933], the photo was taken from Connaught Road. The tram has a canvas roof, this helps to find the date of the photo. David wrote that this type was introduced in 1913 and replaced in 1925. My proposal would be c.1920s

As the slide is at maximum zoom, the street sign with white lettering and dark border on the right reads "Wardley Street".
