Shows godowns likely on Connaught Road in Shek Tong Tsui, probably near Whitty Street. On the hill is the main building of the Hong Kong University. The angle under which HKU can be seen indicates the location.

On the right, a bit in the back,  is a white building. Could that be the Tai Ping Theatre (1st generation) [1904-1930]?

Any better suggestions are welcome.
