The pink brick with white trimming Victorian style house "The Bracket" had given way to this new building.  The pink garage is gone. The vegetable gardens visited from time-to-time by Barking Deers, had been covered with concrete. The pathway still had that ugly iron gate, installed virtually overnight by friends during the 1967 Disturbances, when the lives of Paul Tsui & his family were threatened. Wonder what happened to the marble fireplace inside engraved with a crest of Victoria Royal, said to be formerly installed at the Legislative Council chamber.
