This original " new in 1955" Police Station is still an iconic building for those of us who served in the Hong Kong Flotilla based in the Boat Pool HMS Tamar.

It was the backdrop for all pictures taken of our patrol craft of armed Motor Launches. Alas now absorbed and hidden in later more modern Police Buildings. Is it still there ? It was so evident in the mid-to-late fifties. 

Date picture taken (may be approximate): 
Saturday, January 1, 1966

Hi Peter,

Yes, it is still standing. Here are more photos of Caine House over the years.
