The Star Ferry moved here from a smaller pier that was a short distance to the north. The smaller pier was converted to become the Kowloon Public Pier.

This pier was completed in 1914, see item 47 in the PWD's Annual Report for 1914:

The double wharf at Kowloon Point for the Star Ferry was completed.

I've guessed a demolition date as 1956, as the next generation (the piers we see today) was built on this site and started operations in 1957.
