This is a nice view of the cemeteries before Wong Nai Chung Road was widened and the ramp from Aberdeen Tunnel was built.

I don't remember seeing a building at the northeast corner of Wong Nai Chung Road and Sports Road in the 1980s.  Was it a guardhouse?

Is the pavilion at the southeast corner of Morrison Hill Road and Leighton Road the Police Recreation Club?

Lastly, there seems to have been some squatters and temporary structures in present-day Oi Kwan Road area.

Great, unusual photo. You can also see a tram traveling along Morrison Hill Road, am not sure when that was stopped, plus the tram depot in background, now Times Square. The Muslim cemetery seems exceptionally green.
