14-storey building east of the Harbour Office (4th gen.). It stretched out from Des Voeux Road Central to Connaught Road (then waterfront), its address was 189, Des Voeux Road Central with the additional address of 92-97 Connaught Road. It appears first on the 1957 map on hkmaps.hk as "building under construction". On the roof it had a sign "SEIKO".

It was replaced by Li Po Chun Chambers (second gen.) that opened in 1995, so it was probably demolished in 1993.

Addendum 2022-12-30: The 1960 map also gives the name of the building as " Li Po Chun Chambers", so both buildings had the same name.

Update 2024-09-14: the building opened in November 1957 (source)
