The mid-1950's map at https://gwulo.com/media/14175 shows a development labelled "Peak Pavilions Government Quarters" on this site. Post war pics show a tower block occupying the site where the "Peak Pavilion" Government bungalow had stood from 1910/11.

Guy previously posted the following pic which appeared in a 1952 publication and referred to newly built flats for civil servants, i.e. the tall building in the middle on the skyline.

For this reason alone, I've chosen 1951 as the construction completion date.
