Location approximate - it was at this intersection but not sure which corner. 

Heavy draw-off hydrants were installed under the Kai Tak flight path and other high risk locations between 1962 and around 1971. 31 were installed in Kowloon and 4 on Hong Kong Island.

According to Fire Services Department records, heavy draw-off hydrant #26 was installed at the intersection of Nathan Road and Jordan Road in 1970 or 1971. Date of removal unknown, but it was before 2009. I was unable to find a photo of the location.
