This section extended from Wing Wo Street to Pedder Street.
It was reclaimed in two phases, called East and West, with Pottinger Street as the boundary between them. Progress is given in the PWD Annual reports:
| Year | East | West |

| 1895 | Continued laying rubble foundations for sea wall. | |
| 1896 | Rubble foundations of sea wall completed. Earth, "brick rubbish", and materials from the dredger were deposited behind the sea wall. | |
| 1897 | Rubble foundations of sea wall complete, first two courses of concrete blocks for sea wall in place, and earth being deposited behind the sea wall. | |
| 1898 | Delays due to change in design for Pedder Street Pier (that would be named Blake Pier when it was finished.). | |

The Marine Lots along the old Praya that faced this new land are listed in the notification no. 301 of the Government Gazette for 6th July 1889. The list is a useful resource as it also shows who owned each of the lots at that time.
