Construction of Harcourt Road

After the end of WW2, the military and naval premises were repaired from war damages and used further on. Mainly on Hong Kong Island, these areas were situated right in the centre of the developing city. Any expansion to the east was impeded by these areas, mainly in the aspect of traffic (i.e. motor vehicles).

Many documents from old Hong Kong, e.g. Governmental Reports, have been digitized and are available online. Unfortunately, most of them are only photos of the old books/pages. Although available as pdf-files, they are just images. So re-typing is necessary.
