Hi there,
This was a twin pier which allow two double deckers to load or unload at the same time.
Best Regards,

This was the second pier, on the corner of Man Cheong St. and Man Wui St.
(You can see details of the original pier here).
This was the first of the two Jordan Road ferry piers. On maps dated 1947 [1] and 1964 [2] it is marked 'Vehicular Ferry Pier'.
On the 1990 map [3] it is marked as 'Jordan Road ferry Pier', and a separate 'Vehicular Ferry Pier' is shown at the corner of Man Cheong Street and Man Wui Street.
References (all maps are from the 'Mapping Hong kong' book.):
This pier was roughly where One IFC stands today. The pier was operated by HYF (The Hongkong and Yaumati Ferry Company Limited).
It was originally built for the new vehicular ferry service between Hong Kong island and Kowloon, but several passenger ferry routes also used berths at this pier.
Obviously no longer there and that part of the harbour is already filled in as part of the ongoing reclamation project.
