The center photo shows Richmond House (1st generation).

My guess its around 1930 as the next one in this (Highfill) album is already uploaded https://gwulo.com/atom/24858 (attributed to eternal 1966b, dated 1930's).

Any other clue regarding the date?

Another photo from the set - https://www.flickr.com/photos/sdasmarchives/15343395702/in/photostream/ -  should have been taken in 1935 or earlier, as all of the Queen's Gardens buildings are still standing.

In addition to the Queen's Gardens photo, another photo from the set - https://www.flickr.com/photos/sdasmarchives/15156994050/ - shows the fourth storey of the timeball tower at Signal Hill  which would indicate the date the photo to between 1928 and 1933 as explanined here

In this photo from the same set - https://www.flickr.com/photos/sdasmarchives/15155271639/ - King's Theatre has not been built. This would narrow the date to between 1928 and 1931. Your guess about 1930 would be about right looking at buildings on the Praya East Reclamation .
