Kowloon Government Offices and Central Post Office. Located at 405 Nathan Road, Yau Ma Tei, Kowloon.
Opened end of 1965 or early 1966.
I am interested in the history of the Sheung Wan Branch Post Office
I understand that this establishment was located in the first floor of the Old Harbour Office building in Morrison Street between 1914 and up to at least 1936 - is there any documentary evidence to support this or otherwise ?
This was on Salisbury Road, next to the KCR terminus and opposite the old Marine Police HQ.
Initially it was built as a garage. Notes from Moddsey:
The typhoon of 20 August 1927 brought down the HK and Kowloon Taxicab Company's Garage on Salisbury Road near the KCR Terminus. About 20 cars and half a dozen motor cycles were in the garage at the time of the disaster.Extensive damage was caused. HK Telegraph 22 August 1927 refers.
