completion date from emporis

Might have to consult Mr Raymond Lo for the inauguration and demolision dates for these.  Cannot filter out the big chunk of Google results yet.

Hi there,

The Date is just a guess.  The school website (unfortunately only in Chinese) just stated 1958 with no specific date.  The school was originally called TWGHs The Third Primary School (東華三院皇后大道東第三小學) on Hong Kong Island.  It was rename to TWGHs Li Chi Ho Primary School (東華三院李賜豪小學) in 1971.

Best Regards,

Hi there,

Recently two commercial buildings in Wanchai Road had been demolished.  An ARP Portal could now be seen right up on the slope, under Ruttunjee Hospital.  Go and take a look before constructions begin.  I will try to snap a few photos next time I walk around there.

Best Regards,

T

Before 1997, this pier is primarily being used by visiting foreign service men.  I remember the Mac Yuck there is the only one serving Beer in town.  I would have to go and check this out and see if the pier had already be reclaimed later.

Location is approximate. This was the old pier seen in some old photos when Gloucester Road was the water front.

The replacement Market Building was built directly opposite this one.

Dates are approximates based on available info. any more exact dates appreciated.
