I'm having trouble lining this up with Kimberley Road. From the shadows it looks as though the right of the street is on the north, which makes the curve the wrong way round for Kimberley. Any ideas?

Regards, David

Upon checking, the title on Flickr is incorrect. Cameron Road looking from Nathan Road. See also  here

So my shadow idea was wrong! The right side is south after all.

Anyway, good to have it identified, thanks.

As we're at the start of Cameron Rd, the strip of grey building down the left edge is the Telephone Building. The ground floor was occupied by Whiteaway Laidlaw & Co. Ltd, see: http://gwulo.com/atom/13341
