    What a century: photos.igougo.com/images/p197291-Hong_Kong-Hong_Kong_Harb...
  • motohakone said:
    The photo is likely from the 1880s or 1890s latest. The pier in the centre was demolished around 1902 when the area in front of it was reclaimed.
  • Jon (LOC P&P) said:
    Thanks for pointing that out motohakone. Bain sometimes copied earlier photos, so our date represents when Bain copied it to a negative. I will see if we can add note saying it was taken earlier.
  • motohakone said:
    About the location: the pier is at the former Wellington Battery, the buildings on the right are Wellington and Victoria Barracks (both Army), Left is the the Naval Yard (first location).
  • Jon (LOC P&P) said:
    Thanks again motohakone, I forwarded that along to the cataloger.
