This pier was built after reclamation put an end to the first Queen's Pier.
Recent reclamation means this pier has gone too.

Blake Pier was built on Connaught Road at the end of Pedder Street, and opened in 1900. The Report of the Director of Public Works for 1900 said:
Hi there,
The completion date mentioned is meant for the bunker itself. I am uncertain about the ferry pier.
Dug that up at Shell HK's website earlier.
Best Regards,

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

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.
