Does anyone know the location of the building in this photo please? I see the same building in the recent photos from Stephen Roberts, so I'd like to make a Place for it if we don't have one already.

Thanks & regards, David

As far as I know, the former Police Training School in Kowloon was at Mongkok Police Station.

As I recently wrote in a Gwulo submission which seems to have disappeared, I think the building is the old Poice Training School at Mong Kok. This building later became Kowloon Police Headquarters, and I think it is still there, near the main Mong Kok Police Station building.
