Kowloon City Pier
Thank you for posting a very interesting collection of old HK photos.
I have recently read from newspaper that part of the old bridge / pier had been unearthed as the Japanese didn't border to destroy it during the reclamation work. I guess it will probably be preserved in the new Kai Tak development.

Yes, it's been a pleasant surprise to see just how much of the old pier remains. There's more about the history of the pier here...
