Looking at the taxis and given the flyovers have not been constructed, the photo would be from the mid-1960s.  Near top left is a building under scaffolding which is Nos. 456-464 Prince Edward Road West and No. 1 Tak Ku Ling Road. The building was completed in 1965 and is currently for sale. A popular eatery in Kowloon City, Pak Ho Restaurant was located in the building.

Memories of working at Kai Tak in the 1960s.We used to joke about getting the Loadsheets right for aircraft departures over Kowloon city or they would end up in the PakHo restaurant at the end of the runway.Needless to say that never happened!
