Is this the marines/sailor hospital in Wanchai (today's Rutonjee Hospital) or Jardine's warehouse in Causeway Bay? 

It is a picture of The Chief Justice's House and the Seamen's hospital taken from Jardine's at East Point. I have seen two other Hong Kong pictures by Rossier: one of Happy Valley Racecourse, the other is the Cricket Ground in Central here.
