Date of occupation for the adjacent blocks at 51-57 Hankow Rd is listed as 9/1948 (on Centanet), so I have put the completion date as just before that date (TBC). The block at 51-53 Hankow currently appears to be in better condition than its neighbour at 55-57, but some alterations have been made to the facades etc of both blocks over time.

From 1920 to 1930, many European houses were built in Tsim Sha Tsui. The houses on Hankow Road shown here probably are already second generation. The lots where they were built on are shown below:
