Original text:

This view looks eastward in Johnston Road, at its junction with Fleming Road and Wan Chai Road.

 Most of the large signs are gone, but the tall building with the rounded facade still stands. 

This tramcar ride, camera in hand, offered a good opportunity and a great location to photograph a very interesting urban environment. "Back then," I did not imagine how much things would change between 1980 and 2010.
