Re: Date of the photo and Peak Hotel Annexe Completion
The date of the photo (1912) seems to be correct. The original photo is hosted by The Hong Kong Museum of History; they should be sure of the date.
More clues come from the Public Works Reports. David posted recently:
The Public Works Department's report for 1911 mentions "Additions to the Peak Hotel" among the "Works Commenced", and the report for 1912 notes that "Further additions were made to the Peak Hotel Annexe on R.B.L. 77, Chamberlain Road". So I think the Annexe and Terrace were completed in 1912.

Later Date
I don’t think the 1912 date given for the subject photo is correct for two reasons.
I’m confident this second pic was taken in about 1923 (click on the photo for reasoning), but Peak Hotel Garage hadn’t been built yet. As Peak Hotel Garage appears in the subject photo, the earliest it could have been taken is probably 1924.
